Summer reds - Patti


11 x 14 oil on canvas - I must really be drawn to red as I'm doing a lot of red in my paintings lately...it is my favorite color, but really one of the hardest to keep red. If you try to lighten with white, you'll get pink. So I find orange or yellow will help get that hue I like with alizarin & ultramarine blue to darken.
