Day Five

 Today was easier than other days to get motivated.  Interesting how habits can be formed.  I do find myself thinking about color mixing more.  We are limited by commercially produced colors.  I think I will try limiting the group of colors I use.  Today I used Cadmium yellow, Cadmium Red alyzurim Red and Ulltramarine Blue and White




Tomorrow I am leaving for a trip to New Mexico.  I will try and paint some watercolors.

This painting was done in acrylics. And it is about 7.5”x5.25”.
