Very occasionally perylene maroon gets an outing. I still seem to have lots of tubes of red lurking in the bottom of the draw just the same. Your combinations will be lovely with the greens.

Playing with some colors helped me see what I needed to get close to this - doesn't have to be botanically accurate as long as it reads right :). Hope you are doing well, too. I am feeling better and back to playing and painting.RH Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497161758269292809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7104034804712021440.post-18027997142806480012017-03-14T21:08:17.810-04:002017-03-14T21:08:17.810-04:00hope you are feeling better
