Monochromatic Woman

February 2022 – Both acrylic paintings are 5″ x 7″. The objective was to make multiple paintings of the same woman but with their own primary color.

Learning how to make a color darker by using purples and blues granted me the knowledge of maintaining a painting’s vibrancy without colors such as black overpowering and dulling it. The challenge of making multiple paintings helped me understand my own techniques and common color-mixing mistakes.
