This is a demo to my mentoring class. It is a difficult color scheme, but it is a good experiment. I am curious about what kind of psychological effect of viewing a large area of alizarin crimson. Somehow I feel dark purple in painting is always difficult, but I tried anyway. If you don't try, you will never know.

Your colors are so strong and fresh, and so masterful. Do you use the Ampersand gesso boards for your board surface? Thanks for sharing your talents.
