Tomato 152

Cadmium Lemon, Cadmium Orange, Thalo Turquoise and Permalba White

This one was more difficult than the other two. It may be that the yellow can't compete with the strength of the thalo and the orange. The background color appears warm when contrasted with coolness of the tomato, I'm not sure how I came up with that nutmeg color-it is a combination of all three colors. These are great colors for a lemon. the shadows are warm by the bottom and cooled by thalo going up. There seems to be a lot of blue in Permalba white and when combined with the lemon it tends to take on a very green cast.
