Description
I was bored when I was working on this painting. As I thought about it, I realized that I was missing my usual vibrant color palette. That is because, for the first time ever, I was working with a limited palette – only six colors (thalo blue, alizarin crimson, pyrrol orange, quinacridone gold, hansa yellow and ultramarine blue). All the colors you see in this painting come from those six colors. I had to mix those paints in various combinations to create the greens, purples, and browns. In doing so, I discovered that psychologist Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D. was correct: “When you pay attention to boredom it gets unbelievably interesting.” I was downright excited by the deep luscious green and olive green I created. They were better than anything I bought in a tube and the browns were delicious as well. The brown square on the bottom reminds me of chocolate mousse –Ummm!
