Found your blog recently and have been visiting regularly. These are knockout pieces.

Thanks Rob, The colours are a bit jumpy... but that's the way I see it most of the time LOL! I underpainted this one with cad red.. I think that's why it might seem a bit sharp in some places.

Thanks for the comment and stopping by Les!

Thanks Brendy, it's funny about the underpainting with very warm colours. I always thought it was almost a gimmick of sorts.. but it truly works. It helps me realize just how warm some of the dark darks really can be, and for some reason almost every colour that goes on top vibrates against it visually?!
