Art directors can depend on that, like that...and with Jason, they get exceptional art to boot!<br /><br />take care...peace<br /><br />Larry...Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13869250615451794385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20638302.post-75853920288904966622010-02-02T06:33:19.238-08:002010-02-02T06:33:19.238-08:00Hi Larry!

Then later you find yourself tweaking color to build its sense of chroma strength back. <br />Routinely...as with oils, I like to use a complementary color to the predominant present color to paint on. I've been playing with the black a bit...some for fun, some as experiment...but, it allows me to focus on my purpose of painting to begin with is to register the effects of light. A white canvas helps transparent paint pick up that glow...but I paint fairly opaque anyway. The white of the canvas however means you won't sense the drama of light til much of the canvas is filled in. I get an immediate feedback, an immediate sense of the drama with light against a darker, or neutral ground.<br /><br />I could go on...but I think that's the essence of much of it..<br />thanks...Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13869250615451794385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20638302.post-19752034237848015552010-01-31T09:58:25.828-08:002010-01-31T09:58:25.828-08:00It's so beautiful and shimmering with light.
Q...It's so beautiful and shimmering with light.<br />Question: why did you use black paper when I don't see any black?<br /><br />Thanks for always being so inspiring and sharing. I am learning a lot from you.Terihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16029722057577018059noreply@blogger.com
