"Rubicund" 6x6, Oil on Gessobord I've been going through these little studies to get at the colors that I would want to try bigger. I like the way I got at the blue/purple in the background. It almost hurt my eyes to paint this one. There are skies I've seen that are so purple and orange/red ALL at the same moment. It's so glorious. I used a different Cadmium this time. Cad Orange. I like it. It has a punch that you can't get when you mix Cad Red and Cad Yellow Light.
