I've another best colour and that's Permanent Rose. I hardly ever use it straight but rather as a mixer, shaken and stirred to make wonderful oranges, purples and pinks. So to get away from all the recent green works I decided to give an impression of a cooler season in this painting again of Arran, where every road passes these little whitewashed farm type buildings.
Hi Bridget. I was viewing much of your blog and find it interesting that you can work this same image into so many different paintings! All with their own color scheme resulting in a changed feeling.
ReplyDeleteI agree permanent rose is a wonderful color. Gamblin makes a quinacridone red which is very similar.
Thankyou Sue for visiting. I've never used Gamblin colours but will check out that colour.
DeleteI can never see these intense colours without thinking of your beautiful landscapes, Bridget.
ReplyDeleteThankyou Robyn - I'd love to paint in greys like Joan Eardley but I always gravitate towards bold.
DeleteBeautifully painted! It's as though one is looking through a lovely set of glasses (rose colored?!)
ReplyDeleteLove your work--absolutely.
I'd so like to paint with you in your part of the world Melinda - thankyou for commenting

ReplyDeleteHi Sue - thankyou for visiting here and commenting.
ReplyDeleteMarvelous work! You are right -- this color brings a richness and depth but also a sense of coolness, of chilled twilight on the moors? Bravo!
