The colours for this week are two blues and a green. I was afraid this
was a bit unexciting for me, but by mixing my own blues and by making a
nice bright green, I felt the colour addict within me was satisfied.
I mixed ultramarine blue with a little paynes grey for the darker blue,
then I mixed cerulean blue with a little white for a contrasting blue.
For the green, I used pthalo turquoise with lemon yellow.

| Sketchbook - Finished |
I decided to work in my sketchbook and on a small canvas (10" x 15"), the sketchbook is finished, but the canvas has more work to be done on it.

I find mixing of colours is very interesting even though I am not an artist. It is very exciting to see the end results of the mixing of colours.
Love your idea of using 3 colors... each week... + the mixes
Very dramatic!!!
Rolina, these are, as ever, just beautiful. I imagine your paints getting excited when they see you approaching as they know, if they are chosen, they will be beautifully and vibrantly presented.
