Boundaries

Boundaries

Gouache and Ink, 4x4 on paper

My goal for this painting was to use the warmer side of the color wheel with blue through yellow only.  This required that the blue and yellow would not be used where they could blend to green.  I wanted the main focal area to be a light area on the lower left with secondary areas in the upper left and upper right.  I added the lines to set "boundaries" between close colors and values and to provide suggestions of movement.
