ACEO - Shapes 4

I thought I would like to work on an abstract painting today.

First, I used a pencil and marked in the various shapes.

Next, I used alizarin crimson and painted in the thin line on the left side.

This was followed by using Antwerp blue in the corner of the right side.

I mixed the two colours together and painted in the bottom space on the right side.

From there I painted the small space at the centre top with cadmium yellow.

Cadmium red was used for the line across the bottom starting from the left side.

Lastly, I mixed the yellow and the blue and painted the remaining shape green.

The ACEO shown here is an original watercolour painting using Artist quality Winsor & Newton paint on 140lb. Arches 100% rag, acid free watercolour paper.

It is priced at $20.00 and sold unframed.
