Warm Daisy 5 x 7", 2007
I was experimenting with using warm and cool to create form. This is an exercise from Jeanne Dobie's book "Making Color Sing" which I enjoyed doing. I have found her book very educational and helpful, though I have since discovered through other readings and my own tests that some of the pigments that she recommends most highly are very prone to fading.
On the topic of fading I endeavour to use only those pigments which do not fade at all. I have determined this through quite a bit of research and my own light fastness tests of the pigments that I do use.
