First in the next series of three, this one was painted with the emphasis on the thalo turquoise, not that that is hard-thalo turquoise is a very dominating color, as you can see it influences every part of this painting. Thalo and lemon make a brilliant green. I used quite a bit of orange to warm the shadow side and top of the tomato although it is not readily visible- results in a nice olive color. This tomato does have a cool atmosphere and these colors can result in quite a few off beat colors; none of which you would expect just looking at what is on the palette.
