(Back to) Back to Painting, Part7

Update! I'm on vacation at home, a.k.a. what other Arlingtonians call a "staycation". Just hanging out and doing art for a couple weeks, much needed. I'm taking the opportunity to revisit my color study painting. I've had to give up on the idea of doing it at work since answering the phone and other projects have dominated my time, which makes for poor concentration.

I'm adding the more melon and vermilion influenced hues in now, and also I jumped ahead and started putting the final accent colors in. Overall, the colors in this piece do have a sort of gradient going on, but instead of working completely from the bottom up I'm putting the brightest colors in so I can measure what the extremes of color are. After, I will add the rest of the middle colors in whatever order seems best.
