There are so many (accidental) tiny landscapes in these color fields! I believe this is my new favorite thing to paint. Day 6 of the Paint Yourself Happy challenge continues.

Tried to pick “opposite”-ish colors to see if I could get them to make some unsavory blends. That didn’t work, I love them all.

I love how I mixed the red and blue together to make a deeper violet but they still managed to separate in my mixing saucer and give me a surprising array of colors from indigo to aubergine.

Paints:

Violet: Daniel Smith ultramarine blue, M Graham alizarin crimson, M Graham ultramarine violet
Umber: M Graham burnt umber, Daniel Smith iridescent gold
