sketchbook test study

Color Study
and
playing around with color


I am just starting another painting...and not sure what I am going to end up with. I do love using color and giving a painting a sort of Matisse or Gaughin quality.  It very much depends on whether it works for me or not.  I liked all the shapes in the top 4 color studies, and the bottom is simply very rough bright colors.  I'm now doing another version with a cool tone.   As you will see, it may take time to get the right combination and feeling.
