2017-12-29 Reed College, 11in x 14in, casein on hot press watercolor paperI used rose red instead of Venetian red for my “underpainting” to try and brighten up the end result. Also, I’m back to ultramarine blue rather than Shiva (phthalo) blue; the latter has an annoying tendency to stain my light colors. I went with ultramarine blue for the previous Reed College painting, too.
