I'm still playing with the complementary colors red and green. In this painting of a boatyard in East Boothbay, red and green are mixed to a neutral gray in most instances, the result being a painting largely dependent on strong values. The two pops of pure color occur in the figures. They stand out mainly because of the neutral grays.
Next I will switch to another complementary combination, either yellow and violet or blue and orange. Experimenting with color will help you get over any painter's block you may be experiencing.
