tip for choosing more beautiful colors


Another field painting from Friday's "field-a-thon." One of the glorious aspects of pastel is not having to mix your paints. When using pastels, you simply have to choose colors in the desired tonal value. It can be any color. It's a case where "not having" makes one more open minded. I love this aspect, therefore, when in the field I only use pastel.
Have you thought about your choice of medium? And why?
