The current series of paintings is focused on working small, light and fast . . . as with the Black Pearl, this is quite a small sketch, just 5x7 inches.
For several years now I've been increasingly drawn back to the limited palettes that offer such a sense of space and unity in an image. Much of the Hidden series was done using primarily a brown/blue/white palette. This painting was a combination I haven't spent a lot of time with: technically it's a dead palette, with white, lamp black, and terra rosa. I also had yellow ochre on the palette but used very little of that in this picture. Stay tuned for more paintings coming up . . .
