30 PAINTINGS IN 30 DAYS -- DAY 23

#23                   La Rouge                Acrylic

La Rouge is a Posted Palette provided by my artist friend Joan.  It is a warm palette composed of Burnt Sienna, Lemon Yellow, Alizarin Crimson and White.  The challenge of working with such vibrant colors was to give the viewer's eye somewhere quiet to rest.  The more delicate pinks and peaches created by mixing the colors with white helped to calm the painting just enough.  The emphasis here is the rhythm of the shapes as the darks and lights move around the canvas.  Was I channeling Georgia O'Keefe just a little?


Remember, all of the pieces are 5 x 7” and are available for sale for $20 each ALL OF THE PROFITS OF THESE SALES WILL BE ADDED TO OUR DONATION TO HELP HURRICANE SURVIVORS.
