I am so happy for you. I know you have to be deeply satisfied with this one!<br />You asked about a pre-planned palette. Yes - if working towards a certain harmony. I have wasted a lot of time not working it out first. Slipping in another color does sometimes ruin good harmony. For me anyway. Your new painting shows you are a master at color harmony so may I ask YOU the same question???juliefordoliver.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07186754679744000743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-26246622501140310722016-08-17T17:10:59.461-06:002016-08-17T17:10:59.461-06:00Good to hear from you, Jane.

When I use the term, dominate, they sometimes naturally think of the bright accent color because it can shout out. <br />Black was definitely used a lot at art school as they showed us how many uses it had. <br />Using both the mixing of the complementary color to gray down and/or a mixed gray from black to do the same thing. A mixed gray of the correct value applied to a too bright color directly on to the canvas can mute the color easier than mixing the compliment into it to tone it down. But mixing the compliments together can make the most beautiful neutrals on the palette to use. I enjoy having the freedom to use both methods.<br />Black is great - what the different blacks can do still amazes me.<br />I am really looking forward to your next work. It is exciting to see your growth and especially as you share your thoughts.<br />.<br />juliefordoliver.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07186754679744000743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-41298810551646737422016-08-16T16:10:43.930-06:002016-08-16T16:10:43.930-06:00colour theory was drilled into our brains at colle...colour theory was drilled into our brains at college, and now I find myself using that knowledge a lot even with typography stuff. but me being me, I still ind ways to break the "rules" :p<br /><br />very pretty delicate looking paintings :)Jennifer Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06528908250338974537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-87277760521416240762016-08-16T15:57:28.105-06:002016-08-16T15:57:28.105-06:00Hi Debbie - good to hear you like Turquoise and th...Hi Debbie - good to hear you like Turquoise and the peachy colors together.

We would always begin the year by reviewing skills taught the previous year in part to get the wheels turning again and also to give a measure of confidence to each student that "Yes! I can DO this!" <br /><br />I don't know if one can EVER know all there is to know about color theory or mixtures or harmonies. I doubt it. So periodic review of this for ALL of us is imperative. Interesting comment about color harmony being the culprit in some of the problems paintings have. Do you feel that a preplanned palette using a particular color format (complementary, analogous, etc.)is the best way to approach a painting?Carol Flatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13280091225563623507noreply@blogger.com
