I love all of the colours you are using, or at least what I can see on the blog! Stewie and I are here relaxing at the Ronald McDonald House ce soir. His treatments went fairly well, but his blood counts are very low. YIKES. Looks like he will be home from school at least until his blood will be tested again next week in Moncton. The train ride was GREAT! Sorry, most of this message was not art related. Can't find a way to send an e-mail from this computer??? Take care.

You are correct...Pure pigment is a wonderful thing. You are correct, it can be overwhelming. If you don't know about complementary colors then learn it. They can help to tone down the intensity. Too many colors can be a big problem if you are not ready to handle it. My palatte consists of about a dozen colors, more than that it can be overwhelming for me. All the other colors I achieve come from inter-mixing or tonal variations. Don't worry about mistakes, you can learn much from them. You do good work. there are no set-backs only lessons.Ed Maskevichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06505691052584290449noreply@blogger.com
