Tomato #179

Cadmium Lemon, Cadmium Rd Deep, Cerulean Blue and Titanium White.

This is the last of this series, yellow is the focus. I was looking forward to doing it because the yellow ones frequently turn out well. I'm not sure why. This one is interesting, it has a glow that I usually get when I use my Radiant paints from Gamblin. If you look closely this one has very subtle color in the shadows. It has a very cool light and feel to it. I tried to add some warms using more red than visible, but it didn't add as much as I hoped. It does have some reflected light on the shadow side and overall I am satisfied with the final result. Believe it or not, I used a lot of Cerulean Blue here.
