Wipe those tears from your eyes.

I set a challenge for myself to make a painting using only the semi neutral and neutral color from the Dudeen Palette. Think of them as metaphors for the full intensity primaries. I would this onion that U had photographed from last fall. I set up a small are on my palette (see below) and mixed up some colors I had semi neutral blue, yellow and red.

Wipe those tears from your eyes. 6x6 oil on panel ‘25

Sort of a messy looking palette in the end. For the onion I used only the Blue, Yellow and red neutrals with white and a ver small tint of Cad Yellow. The bag rounds are mixed from Neutral Blue and Red with some Ulyramrine Violet and Alizarin Crimson.
I took about 4 hours over 3 days. It only needs a few days to setup and a tiny bit of Glazing.
