| After the wipe, greens
were layered over the warm colors to define shadows on the form. Pink
became the major highlight and a cool blue became the lightest value
on the pink highlight. These two colors are layered over a violet
that is the ground for the form. The addition of the violet background
on the left was so that the form emerges from the same plane as the
violet ground in the face. This gives the form a figure/ground (positive/negative)
tension, though the form is very dimensional. On the left side of
the face an olive yellow in close value to the violet ground was added.
The olive is warm but contains enough green that it relates to the
darker green shadows. |
