Here is an update on the new still life painting!

A couple of the colors that I'm using, are Hansa Yellow Light, and Transparent Red Iron Oxide.  These paints are transparent and help to produce some interesting color effects.  They sort of seem to glow!

The orange uses Cadmium Yellow Medium and Cadmium Red Light.  (The shadowy area includes some Transparent Red Iron Oxide).  The Cadmiums are classic mineral colors, and are not transparent, but they do mix a very nice, clean orange color!

  1. I see what you mean by the "glow". I just watched a video on Youtube that taught me about Fauvism art. I was amazed!! :) Mountains at Collioune by Andre' Derain was shown. Very bright colors. Going back to see more! :)
