DOWNTOWN  BLUES

Down Town Alley 5x6

Using different color tones this week - It's good to move into a palette that makes you look at your work and change it up! --- Why is tone important? Here is what the master Henri Matisse had to say on the matter...
"Painters Notes 1908" - "When I have found the relationship of all the tones the result must be a living harmony of all tones, a harmony not unlike that of a musical composition." - Henri Matisse

2012 Twitter Art Exhibit #2 organized by David Sandum - a Charity Art Exhibit to raise funds for a women's refuge center. The exhibition was held in Moss Public Library in Norway. I am pleased to announce my painting above has sold! ---- Good Luck to all the women involved in the refuge......
