Last weekend, September 16 and 17, I was involved in our local artist studio tour. Since I didn't want to try to paint with lots of interruptions, I decided to work on complimentary color charts. I've been reading a book called the Yin Yang of Painting and the author teaches you to use compliments to create yin and yang paintings by using opposites - light/dark, warm/cool - and opposites on the color wheel. This is my yellow/purple palette. After I did this I painted a few paintings with this palette and it makes beautiful color harmonies and really nice greens! How surprising to discover that this palette mixes such beautiful greens, earth tones and grays.
