Mina Al Simoom - stage 3


 Made some decisions about the colours this morning and have gone for dusty yellows, browns and oranges - I will introduce some violets into the foreground as the complementary and for some variety of colour (and I suspect some dusty greens too). Difficult to get a decent pic of this, the original is softer and warmer than it appears here. I painted the first pass on the sky and background today as well as blocking in some more colour on the buildings in readiness for tomorrow's painting session when it will be dry.

Colours used so far: Dioxazine Purple, Manganese Violet, Burnt Sienna, Permanent Orange, Naples Yellow, Yellow Lake Deep, Cadmium Yellow Pale, Lead Tin Yellow Lemon and Warm White.
