Back to some glorious Payne's Grey
YeeHaa! . . . cowgirl was watercolored tonight in glorious Payne's Grey ... ain't no other way y'all ta learn some proper values! Yo! . . . "Attitude" is fresh! Gotta PG it in the hood, homies!
David, Are you using just Payne's grey? When I tried this in a watercolor class, thinking how much I like how your pictures look, my instructor got in a lather, insisting I add burnt sienna to tone the grey. Since I don't like conflict, I complied with her, but I don't think you do that. Your paintings look fresh and lively!

Reminds me of the elegance of black and white photographs!
Way cool!
