This piece was one of my experiments with limited palettes This was done with the Zorn palette. Invented by the Swedish artist Anders Zorn, it is often used in figure painting because it lends itself so well to quick painting and gorgeous flesh tones. The modern version of this palette is: Titanium White, Bone Black (aka Ivory Black), Yellow Ochre, Vermillion (or Cadmium Red Light).
Collection Details:
Little Oil Paintings is an ongoing collection of handmade original art works. Each 8x10 canvas board set in a very simple white mat and black frame. My intention with this collection is to allow myself to explore and experiment artistically while still staying true to a very simple presentation. Each piece is a visual riddle. Sometimes it was a challenge in light, or color, or emotion that made me ask myself “Can I pull this off?” Every painting in this collection represents a victorious “Yes”.
