Mexico City was the place for December at Virtualpaintout This is on the outskirts of Mexico City. About where blue lines end on Google Maps.This is the link to the original. I think it’s a donkey or a horse – could be a cow.
Here it is on Google Maps
This is a watercolour painting in my sketchbook, using the basic triad from Dory Kanter’s book Art Escapes
I particularly didn’t use pen with this because I wanted to see if I could get the darks with the wishy washy pink and lemon in this particular triad, and you can see I did.
What a lovely VPO piece! I am even more drawn to the triad however. I’ve not seen the color wheel done in this manner before (maybe I don’t get out much) but I absolutely love it! I just started an art course (slow going for me because of having to work too, sigh…), but know this is a project I am looking forward to doing myself! Thanks for showing this in the way you did it!
What glowing colors you got from this triad! The juxtaposition of the luminous coral of the ground with the translucent blue/green sky is stunning!
