This was my first go with my new pallet of Daniel Smith Paints, Prima Tek’s. I painted this piece with a limited palette using Purpite Genuine, Aurelian, New Gamboge and Sodalite Genuine. I know really weird names, basically red, two yellows and a blue.

They were easy and fun to use and as you can see the mixture of the blue and yellow really created a strong granulation yet watery.

I didn’t really get the range of grays that I would get using lets say Indigo and Alizarin.

And I didn’t get to really use the full palette. I know I’m kind of shy but hay this is a pretty much all-new color palette.

This is a soft and beautiful piece. Wanting to understand the new palette I thought I would paint a familiar piece. A companion to this one, “Blooming where planted.” I look forward to seeing them hung together. 

Keeping the brushes wet,
