Carol Carter workshop

I've been enjoying Carol Carter's workshop so much! This first pic of an exercise in painting with two colors. She taught us to put in a wash background first, using just prussian blue and burnt sienna, working light to dark, warm to cool.

This beach pic was from the second day. We again put in the background first. Then using just three primaries, worked on the shapes. One shape is using yellow in the center, blue on the left, red on the right. The next shape uses blue in the center, red on the left, yellow on the right. The last shape uses red in the center, blue on the left, yellow on the right. I had so much fun with this. It is obviously not my normal way of doing things.

Most everyone painted cantaloupe, but I was in a beach mood.

The tulips was from the first day, using a wash in the background and again a limited palette of two colors. Carol purposely forms "blossoms" but I was not very successful with creating them. Probably would be easy if I weren't trying.
