Shake-it-up Callie

I've been in a painting rut lately. I've been painting quite a bit but not liking how anything is turning out. Hmphh. I've been experimenting with a few different things to try shaking things up. This painting of my favorite muse, Callie, is using a different paint brand than I normally use, and a couple added hues to my normal very limited palette (cadmium red medium and ultramarine blue, if you're curious!). I also tried a different background toning (quin. magenta) than my usual black.

    1. Thanks Robin! I’m trying do some 5x7’s in hopes a few will turn out well enough for Art 4 Shelter. I saw you were a featured artist on their page- so cool!!!
