"Umber"

6 x 6"
oil on masonite
sold

U is for Umber. Inspired by an exercise that Carol Marine presented at our recent workshop - purely a values study. And it's hard. So I did this piece strictly with Burnt Umber - but with a tad of black and a tad of white - I wanted that sweatshirt to separate itself from the overall tones. I just loved painting this. I almost hate to part with it.
