Black Eyed Susans II

I love to paint these Susans. I did these as a class demo last week. I don't remember which class they were done in. This piece is 12"x12". I painted them on dry paper with a fairly dry paint with lots of pigment. I developed the background first, Cobalt blue into which I dropped Ultramarine and Cad light Red. the petals are Cad light Yellow into which I dropped Cad Orange and Cad Lt Red. the centers are Ultramarine, Burnt Sienna, Burnt Umber and Cad lt Red. I finished as I usually do with linework, working my way to the bottom of the page and finishing in two dimensional space.
