6x6 oil on panel
sold
This was also sent to Castle Gallery a couple of weeks ago and it sold during their opening reception. I just now realized that its very much about complements. I know I am drawn to things that are 1. very strongly lit; 2. colorful; and 3. interesting perspectives... but I didn't notice this was very much about complements; something that we played with in our monthly challenge last month. I know some of the others continued to play with a limited palette using complements since that exercise. I am thinking of using a limited palette maybe for this summer. As I travel, it will be good perhaps to have less to carry and less to fuss over when I want to get a quick sketch at the beach.
The work of Kevin Weckbach comes to mind when I think of someone using a limited palette and complements really well. His work is wonderfully fresh, loose and unique. Check him out.

Great colors and nice juicy feel to the brush work. Nice job.
Really nice, Robin. My kind of painting. I love to paint the children in their awkward stances, etc. I often do my painting with only two or three colors and enjoy that very much.
A great piece!
Fresh and delghtful - you're so good!
Nicely done! I love the candidness of it and the way you've laid down your brushstrokes!
