Colour Quilt 1 Yellow Signature, 4 x 6" cold press watercolour, November 2020
I had this idea for a new colour scheme involving a mix of earth and
synthetic paints. The top bar is goethite (PBr7), the second from top is
mostly phthalo green (PG36, PG7), the bottom left is mostly ferrari
red (PR254), bottom middle raw umber (PBr7), and bottom right
benzi and bismuth yellow (PY154, PY184). It has the red/green
complement, the secondary green and orange, and the value contrast
between dark brown and light yellow.
Above, is a second version almost the same except I used raw sienna (PBr7) on the top to avoid the granulation from goethite. I also added a touch of carbon black to the raw umber to make it more neutral.

Above,
is a third version almost the same as the second version except I omitted the carbon black, and tried to make the sections more equal. I would like to try a larger version and attempt to make it perfect, so the paint brush strokes are not visible, which is hard to do with watercolour.
