I recently participated in a very interesting online workshop with Lewis Noble. Delving into an abstract approach to the landscape, we began with a very limited palette — Lemon Yellow, Yellow Ochre, Ultramarine Blue, Burnt Sienna, Black, and White. Challenging and fun! Green was created using Lemon and Black! We utilized collage methods for an even more exciting experience. Paint used was acrylic, not my usual.
This painting (in progress) is the child of the child of the child of one of my earlier workshop efforts. I used the limited palette (NO RED, really!) adding just a small amount of Cerulean Blue to the Ultramarine. Unfinished, but another session should do it.
