I'm about to start a 2nd copy of a painting of mine called, "First Moonrise," and discovered a challenge: BOTH OF THE MAIN PAINTS I USED ON THE ORIGINAL ARE ON MY "BANNED COLORS" LIST. They required too many layers to be built up to make them bright enough. Now I've started a round of tests to come up with a good moonlight palette for the painting. Kathryn, who commissioned the piece, loves moonlight as much as I do, so I plan on really making that the priority. In my studio, I'm set up to test a new moonlight palette. Here is my first round of candidates. I'm going for luminosity but with a natural look. The T.C. community is a lighthouse in a wicked storm. http://www.robbhamel.com [ Edited by: Robb Hamel 2011-09-13 12:35 ]
