| 6/9/19 Maple Leaf neighborhood |
Although I’ve lived in Maple Leaf for more than 30 years and
drive on this street occasionally, I walk on it far less often. Street views
always look different on foot. When I’m driving, I must attend to not crashing,
so I miss things, like the downtown skyline just above the treeline. Out
walking on a quiet Sunday afternoon, the city view caught me by surprise.
Technical note: In a recent alley sketch, I
impulsively tried adding yellow to the red and blue I’ve been experimenting
with, and it didn’t seem quite right. This time I was more deliberate in my
addition of yellow to represent the near-lightest values. I don’t use yellow
much as an abstract color, so it was fun, and I like using the three primaries
together. What do you think? Is yellow an interesting addition?
I definitely like the yellow addition. It adds to the sketch I think.
ReplyDeleteIt does give the sketch a sunnier look, doesn't it?
DeleteI like how the yellow adds a little sunshine!
