Cadmium Lemon, Cadmium Red Deep, Ultramarine Blue and Titanium White.
The second in the series, this tomato was really fun to do, and it took little time as opposed to #174. The violet background may be a bit too much but it was exciting to see how many colors came out of this combination. I think I have an easier time with yellow. Compare it to #174 and you wouldn't believe I used the same colors. I mixed a gray-green then went to yellow and put in a gray-purple background. This exercise is what I had in mind in when I set out on this color study venture-lots of color on the subject. All of the colors used are visible on this tomato and some cool/warm contrasts.
