I think if I ever went full on into abstract painting, it would be just about pure color. Maybe someday, you never know! Here's a color chart I painted on top of an old drawing demo from teaching. It's meant to explain a fairly profound idea about creating the effect of "chiaro-scuro", which is what anyone is doing when they make representational painting. I used it as a demo in class, and it turns out to be a good visual aide! It's too complicated to explain in words and outside the context of my class, so I'll let it stand on it's own as a visual riddle, and also something fun to look at. oil on paper, 24 by 19
