Palette cleanser #3

One more palette cleanser, I do these paintings for fun and to make good use of the new colours I got recently. Yes I am up to 35 tubes of paint. It's also important to be creative since the latest projects I took on, the World Inspired Landscapes, and the The 27 stations of the green line metro, both require a lot of planning and adhering to the subject matter. Although world inspired gives me a bit more leeway. I kind of enjoy the results of these paintings, although I ripped one up the other day (sorry Mom). They are on a decent watercolour paper, at least acid free and good manufacturer Fabriano. The oranges are not really this bright, for some reason the scanner interprets orange and burnt sienna (a kind of orange) as being very intense. I may have to dial it down a bit just to be more internet friendly. It's funny, but I am learning about which of my watercolours are good for the internet, and which are not so good. Modern information for the modern painter.
