Coastal Memories 6x6 Oil on Panel
Day five is here and I have a new painting to show you all.
This is an image of my son looking out at the Oregon coast.
For this painting I started with a teal green oil background. The pallet I used was Cobalt blue, Burnt Sienna, Cadmium Yellow medium, Ivory black and Titanium white. Have you all noticed a trend with the pallet choices? They are basically the same but I am just substituting different shade of colors depending on what I want to achieve in the painting. In all simplicity the pallet of colors are Blue, Red, Yellow, black and white. This is as basic as it gets. I use Winsor Newton oil paints and I can order 119 different colors from them. Limiting your pallet makes for a more harmonious colors and teaches you to mix all these 119 colors with just a select few. Cool huh?
Completed January 5th.
