7x8 pastel and watercolor on Wallis
It's buttercup time, one of my favorite times.
I used some really intense colors in this painting, hopefully I balanced them with enough yummy neutrals.
Did you hear yellow comes forward and blue recedes? I decided to play with that, push that idea around. I dislike absolutes. It's about simultaneous contrast not rules.

Come to find out, nothing is absolute.
Hey PB and Sam!
The blue works in this but the yellow sky is too warm. Still it's always nice to see nothing is absolute.
Wow, Loriann - this is so lush! Gorgeous contrasts!
No, no, I love the yellow sky.
How exactly does one come to paint in 7 x 8, and not 8 x 8?

Love the greens in this one. Great bold colors peeking through under them in the foreground.
Hi Brian...thank you!!!!!!
Hey Karen! I am glad you like the sky ..I later thought it was too warm. Yeh, 7x8...a scrap of paper.
Hi Pam! Thanks about the color!
I think it works.
Hi Jala...maybe.
