Bottle Collection - Oil on panel 8 x 10 inches © Jim Serrett
The painting on my easel is a study of bottles done with an earth palette.
I have really enjoyed working with these limited palettes; they have an innate natural harmony and subtlety.
The chart is the studio palette I have been using for several recent works. The color chart is comprised of just four hues, yellow ocher, burnt sienna, burnt umber, ultramarine blue, and white. These low key earth palettes will make you look closely at building color relationships and thinking about color saturation.
Very nice posts Jim.
ReplyDeleteThe limited earth palette does make one look at those subtle relationships of cool and warm.
Looking forward to seeing the finished piece.
