Tomato # 149

Cadmium Lemon, Quinacridone Red, Sap Green and Titanium White

Believe it or not , I actually used quite a bit of Q. Red here. The shadows are a combination of all three colors-just a tiny bit of lemon. The darks are Sap Green and Q. Red , for the most part. Adding lots of whit and medium gave me the background; which I think could be darker. Looking at these colors on a palette would not suggest this tomato as an end result. Having done this series of three (147, 148 & 149)
using the same colors with different emphasis is one I might continue with,I feel much more familiar with these colors and more confident in the results I can expect.
