“From the Light”
I
have used a colour combination of
yellow ochre, black, white and cadmium
red in the majority of these
paintings. All of these colours,
except for black, lean towards a warm
palette. I use a blue-black because I
want a cool black to complement the
warmer pigments. This has a dramatic
effect on the composition. After the
ground coat is dry I paint the
highlights of light in first, followed
by structures abutting the light. Sky
and buildings are painted at the same
time, creating a sensation of
buildings rubbing against one another,
changing with the light.
