I am enjoying using just  three primary colours for my painting. The black gesso panel is definitely a great starting point, I find that I can see the colours much more clearly...and I really enjoy painting sunflowers.

SUMMER IN NANOOSE

8 x 8 inch
oil on 1/8th inch canvas board
SOLD

My husband took this photo at Nanoose edibles where we get much of our produce.  They plant a huge row of sunflowers every year and they are spectacular.  I used a black panel to start and ultra marine blue,cad med light,cad yellow pale and titanium white.  Again, it is a really good exercise to use a limited palette, keeps you focused on the colour you are using.
