This is the second of two portrait studies completed over a couple of nights exploring opposing colour theory options.
- The first (and the subject of a previous post) being a limited palette of two bright, contrasting colours
- and the subject of this post, created with muted, more neutral colours
The muted palette gives a sense of calm, but the overall greyness has more of a melancholy vibe compared to the previous painting.
Interesting experiment.
