....in Maggie Latham's Exploring colour in watercolour part 4 .... Maggie talks about the importance of keeping a colour journal sketchbook ..I'm posting a couple examples of complementary colour swatches "orange + blue" which I've made in the past from pages of one of my moleskine sketchbooks... I enjoy working intuitively with colour hopefully knowledge of colour theory will enrich this ....working on 100 wash challenge definately has.
Better knowledge certainly is helpful to me and the exercises are more enjoyable than I would have thought beforehand. Thanks for sharing these, I recognize some of them!
RispondiEliminaReally like the painting of the tubes of paint, you manage to get it completely without overworking. Amazing!
RispondiEliminaHai Jane:) Incredible beautiful! The shadow under the tube and the way you painted the tubes and the colors around them. Just perfect!

RispondiEliminajudy ann renate i used the watercolour tubes as an example ...i've posted it before just added a few colour swatches so i could link back to maggie's exploring colour part 4 and colour journals ..which is a wonderful post
RispondiEliminajudy glad you're making most of the exercises ! ..it's good experimenting with different colours and combinations .
Jane, The one great thing about keeping a colour journal is that everything goes into it...random thoughts, colour swatches, paint studies etc. If I do some of these on small bits of watercolour paper, I just double side tape them into my book. I love your paint tubes!
RispondiEliminahi maggie ...journals are wonderful for personal reference would be nice to keep loose work together in a loose leaf portfolio format ... with so many photos sketches studies swatches ..could also be collected in digital journals file / computer as a record and reference ...not quite the same as journal but useful .... i'm looking foward to meeting up with suzanne this w-e ...thanks again maggie
