Daily Painting August 9, 2010

Late post today. Too much to do yesterday to get this posted but I did get it 90% complete.

This painting is on 9 1/4 x 6 1/2 Art Spectrum Colourfix paper. Another support picked up at a workshop. I only like this paper OK...not enough tooth for me. The colors are nice, this one is a light yellow, but I like a tooth that really grabs.

I am attempting to have a focus for each painting. Since all of them have been symmetrical balance I did this one in approximate symmetry.

simple explanations of balance

One of the best books on design

Here is painting number 9.
