Oil 6 x 6
This is my entry for Carol Marine's Daily Paintworks
challenge this week. The photograph was submitted by
Michael Naples, and participants were only allowed to use
a palette consisting of ultramarine blue, burnt sienna and white.
You would think that using such a limited palette might make this
challenge more difficult, but in fact it was easier to focus on
value shifts without the distraction of a lot of color, and quite
interesting to see the variety of color that could actually be
created from these three colors.
Have to say, I am LOVING these challenges!

Now your version looks so real, Claire. Why? Because it looks like it just came from someone's hand, hints of fingerprints, I think. Great job!
great piece I love your Zippo Magic.
I'm here to say that you knocked this out of the park, great job Claire!
I love the challenges too.
Thank you Sherry, I think it might be the glare from wet paint!
Thanks so much, Irit!
Thank you for the great comment, Dana! I really appreciate it.
Very well done, Claire, I have to agree with you about this challenge, very addictive, I just finished the latest one.
Thank you for visiting my blog and the kind remarks.
Thank you, Horst. I just saw your entry for the next challenge, and you have really set the bar!
