Palette Cleanser: Patterns

 

After completing the end-to-end bicycle and painting trip I have to admit I was a little burned out. Some years I completed 50 painting in the whole year, here I had done that many in a week! The palette itself was a mess too, and I had done a few more paintings just to use up the last of the yellow and perylene green which turned out to be the most popular colours of the trip. In this palette cleanser, I drew inspiration from the trip, capturing a range of greens and blues with other accent colours. That prominent green in the lower right is phthalo green yellow shade (PG36), similar to the blue shade version but much better for making clean greens.
