Can you guess which it is?.....


At the time Marvin started this thread I was finishing this large painting - it is 7 1/2 feet tall and has 7 kids ( photos I took last summer). So to try out this paxton pallette, I stopped before finishing this painting, and started the painting of Olivia (shown in above post). Once almost completed with Olivia last week, I went back to this painting of 7 kids and finish it.

Just for yuks I painted one of the kids entire face and body in the paxton pallette. The rest were all done with my pre-paxton pallette - which I think was - naples yellow, cad yellow, cad orange, cad red, scarlet red, al crimson, yellow ochre, pale green, sap green, terre verte, ultra. blue, kings blue, turquoise, diox. purp. and black.

I just quickly took this photo at night tonight in incandescent light - sorry for the bad image. I'll post one with close ups tomorrow with better lighting.

I think, like I said in the painting of Olivia, that I completed the face faster with the paxton pallette than what it took me in time for any of the other 6 faces ( in general). I still used cads, but as a tweak here and there, not as part of the main "attack"

I thought I'd post this as I think it's rather fun to think that one face is painted with a completely different pallette.
