Timothy thank you very much for your input and encouragement.
Marvin I will certainly look into what you have suggested and it did very much encourage me that I was on the right track by some miracle.
This palette that I am refering to is called the Jack Reilly palette. Mr. Reilly was director of the Art Students League of New York for many years and this was the palette he used for his beginning students. Mr. Farraggaso, first a student of his, then a teacher in the school and after Mr. Reilly's passing became director of it for many years also, wrote a book called "The Students Guide tp Painting" of which I have a copy and it is based on Mr. Reilly's teaching. Mentioning this to let you know where I obtained the information in case you were interested. The book has been long out of print and hard to find.
I have been observing your paintings along with many others and admire them greatly. I will now go look at those you have suggested, I believe there is something here posted on your palette already, I read so much here on the site have trouble keeping up with it, but it caught my eye and will go check this out.
Again thank you very much for your generous input.
