Hello Yellow

My yellow Creative Colour Challenge piece is finished…just a tad the wrong side of the deadline!


"Hello Yellow"
Kylie Marie Stevens
Oil on canvas
300 x 250mm
2010
$60

It is completely different than the image that was in my head when I embarked on this challenge.
 
I broke all of my rules and tried to paint when I wasn’t really interested in painting and with a really tight time frame, so surprise, surprise it didn’t work!  Then I had a play and a scrape about and added some more elements and it got worse. So I did the first sensible thing I’d done all day and walked away! 
 
When I approached it with a fresh eye and a new idea I was able to rescue it and turn it into something I’m happy with.
 
This week’s colour is Raspberry Red – hopefully my lesson is learned and I won’t leave it until the last minute!
