As of today I started a blog, would you look at it and give me any advice that could.

So recently I tried painting tomatoes with exactly the same orange ground that you have in this painting. It was a hilarious disaster. I would mix up the orange and nail the color on the pallet, but when I would put it on the canvas the orange looked completely brown next to the saturated ground. So confusing. I had to cover all the orange ground and then, the tomato color looked perfect. So I'm just wondering how do you look past that powerful contrast using these bright grounds?Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06884767387842085659noreply@blogger.com
