My ArtVenture: Watercolor painting "First date"
Hello dear Steemians,
Today the topic of my painting is being in love. Everyone was young and I can remember how it is cute to see little children who share you their secret being in love, this is the most enjoyable moment to see those children and to learn may be much from them, they are open telling about their feelings direct and especially it is funny to know sometimes why they like her or him.
I decided to use my watercolor this time and thought again to limit my palette, I needed the areas of black but I tried to create Black from: Burnt Umber and Burnt Sienna with Prussian blue because pure black has only one pigment and I wanted it to be complex and have mix of pigments. I find it worked very well.
My green I created using: Yellow Ochre and Prussian blue with a little bit of Burnt Sienna. I love this green-blue color because the main color is anyway Blue. The skin color I created with Burnt Umber and Burnt Sienna quite diluted and for darker areas just added a bit of Prussian blue.
So all together my colors are:
- Prussian blue
- Yellow Ochre
- Burnt Sienna
- Burnt Umber
- Cadmium Red for flowers
You can see that this is enough to create such a rich color palette on the painting.
Good art!

Your piece is lovely! Having the boy hold the flowers behind his back was shy and sweet, like first love.
Clever idea to limit your palette to create the shades that you wanted!
Thank you very much and I am really happy to hear your wonderful comment, I was also very glad that used just few colors it does not distract from the main subject :)
