Hillside in Red and Blue

Here I tried a red/blue harmony in a modified cruciform composition.  Red melts into orange and blue melts into violet.  The magnificent watercolorist Ratindra Das composes very exciting paintings using one rule : No parallel lines!  It’s hard to do.  But it makes for a dynamic surface.  If you then add some parallel lines, it’s a discord.  Interesting.

Hillside in Red and Blue is 6×6″ Acrylic media and collage on panel.
