The color choice and the boy's posture tell such a story in this painting. I am really enjoying your alphabet series. I will be sad when you get to Z, unless you feel like going back to the beginning and starting again? :)Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02494806312648513169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4621225576781147800.post-64836032833917474352008-03-29T23:25:00.000-05:002008-03-29T23:25:00.000-05:00Proves that you don't need full color to make a st...Proves that you don't need full color to make a statement.

If so, try using a white canvas, if you ever use umber again, then you can get all the way to white using only paint thinner or turp. Lotta fun.

If you aren't familiar with them do check them out.
