Ever try a monochromatic painting. That is painting with only one hue plus black
and white? There are lots of cases where
it can be very successful. Still it can
be confusing. I did a painting once
using mostly blues plus white and black.
My friends trying to be helpful, said I needed to add some warm color to
the highlights, so I added a little yellow.
Still my elderly and very experienced friend said it need more warmth in
the highlights. I added still more
yellows. In the end, I wish I had left it
alone entirely because now it was just a yellow and blue painting that looked
strange no matter how you view it.
What do you think?
