Harvest

Limited palette: With collage, I've used fluid acrylics for the first time.  Also new colors: raw umber, thalo turquoise, nickel azo yellow.  As I discovered in oil, limiting your palette can really strengthen your design.  And limiting your palette is not just putting out a few colors to paint with.  It means limiting the colors that actually end up on the canvas!  Big difference! This involves a lot of restraint.
Harvest is  6x6" acrylic and collage mounted on 8x8" matte board.
