Another interesting color study from Connie Hayes. The red just glows and I love the way the glow of the gold seems to soften everything.

This is the color study from the back of Connie's book, a very unusual one, very exciting. Don't you just love the violet? I do.

Color Study after Connie Hayes #1

Color Study After Connie Hayes #1

A small color study done form the amazing photo on the cover of her book. As with the other artists I admired, I copied her colors and proportions but not her subject matter. The mixes of colors that take her away from "crayola" type ones and just amazing. I learn every time I look at her work.

Color Study after Richard Schmid

Color Study after Richard Schmid
9x12 Oil on arches oil paper
$75

The delightful painting hidden in this abstract color study is a young lady painting. It is one of my favorites. I continue to be amazed at how he puts colors together. I never would have thought of the lovely aqua and that subtle red. (if red can ever be subtle)

The original of this is a lovely lady in a garden setting, lots of green grass. I am always taken at the proportions of color with this artist. And though he used a lot of neutrals, other color has an important presence.
