Salvete Omnes,
a short entry about colors and painting and light etc.
I would like point your attention to the limited color palette known as the Anders Zorn palette (known as Apelles palette) - yellow ochre, vermilion red/cadmium medium red, ivory black and white (lead or titanium white).
James Gurney did a post about this concept, background and its application - here is maestro Gurney's demonstration in gouache.
some more videos -
Andre Tischler demonstration - video
Cesar Cordova's demonstration - video
Aaron Westerberg demonstration - video
Alex Tzavaras demonstration - video
enjoy Anders Zorn's galleries on Wiki Commons - wonders of watercolor and oils, and plenty of etchings & drawings
there are very few horses in his paintings but Anders Zorn was very skilled, including in sculpting eg
photo from this FB page devoted to painting etc |
ciao
