Tomato #157

Cadmium Lemon, Cadmium Red Light, Viridian Green and white

This one almost sent me over the edge, several times I thought I had it and then one stroke and it was gone. I wiped it all off and mixed an olive green with all three colors and that seemed to work. I added lemon and white for the lights and viridian for the shadows. I ended up with that green cast shadow and I'm not sure if I like it. Again, much less intense than I anticipated. Viridian is so transparent it is easily taken over be whatever is added.
