Seasons inverted
I started this as a 'four seasons' watercolor. planning to, using only a red/yellow/blue palette and mixing my colors on the paper, run transitions from winter blues through vibrant spring greens, through mature summer greens in to autumn's yellows, reds and oranges but but but…
After putting down the first few strokes I got to thinking about how the complementary colors would look against black so…
I abandoned my seasonal theme and instead laid down my strokes with the intent of digitally reversing the colors when I finished.
So so so… here's the result.
Watercolors (red/yellow/blue palette) on Canson's XL recycled Bristol paper, 11 by 14 inches and the colors digitally inverted or reversed.
