The image needs us. It can't live without us. A moment of fearfulness on our part and the image will become too terrified to show itself and what it could become. At the same time not every image needs to be rough and tough. An image can be quiet, playful or thoughtful, it doesn't need to be risky. All an image needs is for the artist to give it what each individual image needs. Otherwise you end up with what George Foreman has - four boys named George.

Orange Tonal Study - Video
A short 2 and 1/2 hour color theory exploration into orange tonal colors. Liquitex Acrylic paint shot with a Samsung Galaxy S III smartphone in recording mode.
Orange Tonal Study
I think this is the last in the series. Perhaps I'll do a black and a white tonal study but I think I have done studies that are similar enough to move forward. Working with a cadmium orange hue - I think it's too red - so I add a small amount of primary yellow to get the orange I want.
Color palette included:
Cadmium Orange Hue
Primary Yellow
Titanium White
Mars Black

The battery was almost dead halfway through the painting so I was unable to record to the end.

Red Tonal Study
Red tonal study. For some odd reason I keep putting paint on my palette that I'm not using. I need to buy air-tight containers to put the paint since I can't put it back in the tube after it comes out. Perhaps I can buy Basics out of a jar. That would be nice.
