Still cold and gray here in Maine. Such a contrast to the colors I mix on my palette which is a good balance for what I see out the windows. Bright colors just make me happy.
One of the most important things I have learnined is not using black paint, but creating the darkest darks by using Ultramarine Blue, Alizarin Crimson and Phthalo Green.

Try ultramarine and burnt sienna. They give together a rich, very dark grey. Carin.
Bellos colores los que has plasmado. Dan alegría
Cierto que en pintura no se utiliza el color negro puro, es una de las primeras lecciones que nos enseñan, cuando empezamos.
Me gusta la frescura que reflejan tus cuadros. Un saludo
Nice! In the first painting, I love how the warm colors of the sky work well with the blue of the ocean. This is definitely not a usual sight in Maine, but as an artist, it’s our job to interpret the world through our own lens. We see things differently, and that’s what makes our works special.
