Floral Painting in Oils

Cyclamen Flowers
Cyclamen Flowers, painting by Delilah Smith
About This Painting:

 I like to paint thick and expressionistic. I usually work with a very limited cool warm primary palette also known as a double primary palette.


I use Alizarin Crimson and Cadmium Red as my warm and cool reds e but for this paining I chose Da Vinci Cadmium Orange and Rose Madder.


There are a wide range of colors to choices available and trying to decide what to paint with can be overwhelming, that is why I think learning to work with a limited color palette and mix your own colors is vital to understand how to mix and use color.


There are many different kinds of limited palettes. There are the palettes of the Old Master, Earth toned palettes and the palettes of the Impressionists' pick one that you like and work with it for a while and see what you learn.
