Complementary colors


Beginning with this post, I'm going to paint the same subject with different complementary colors.  This first painting uses yellow and violet.  On the island I used pure color while the sky and foreground were neutralized colors which leaned either to the warm or cool color.  Painting in a series with a particular focus, like experimenting with color theories, reminds us all of the important things about painting.
