Sunflowers WIP continued
It is petal time now! The fun part begins. Using same yellows and gold, I am putting light values next to middle values next to darks as with yellow everyone who paints knows you cannot darken yellow. I will lightly dip into raw sienna, but very dilute, as it is an opaque and I enjoy its rich warmth. Quin gold is more transparent but very close in value strength. You can see I also used a small amount of transparent pyrrol orange by Daniel Smith, maybe my favorite color in the orange and red analogous color groups. Time to close the studio and finish up tomorrow.
