OSWOA - Flowing Colours 2

The temperatures continue to be in the 80F+ (27C+) range with still no rain in sight. It is hard to get motivated to work on a larger painting, so today I felt like playing with colour and not doing anything too serious.

I wet the paper and brushed in the primaries using cobalt blue, alizarin crimson and new gamboge. I allowed the paint to mix together on the paper and let it dry. Then I went in and painted in a few dots of colour to create some interest.
