Portrait in Primary Colors

Portrait-in-Primary-Colors-011

All colors are made from red, yellow or blue. These are the primary colors. Today I had my wife sit for a quick portrait. I squeezed those three colors on my palette. If I mixed yellow and blue, it came out green. Yellow and red came up with an orange shade. Red and blue ended up violet.

I love this idea of using only red, yellow and blue. Very cool.

Unbelievable to me that you can get so many different colors and shades out of 3 colors! Beautiful painting of your sweetie, too!
