Heh, thanks. Since the week before this one was so much about value (but no colours) I figured that 0+2 = 1, so I went in as hard as possible with the colours for this one. I generally don't like keeping multiple colours highly saturated in a painting since (by the rules of contrast) that makes it much harder to get a specific colour to "pop", and it's one of the first things I was taught reading about colour theory. But then I look at the art I personally enjoy, and this rule (while generally "true") falls apart a bit, for me.



I worked with the saturation where the sky/field meets, as well as increasing the contrast of the values of the dress/hair with the field to still try and have it read.



It does burn the retina, but at the same time I'm surprisingly pleased with how it turned out. I guess it's because I feel like I "accomplished" my original aim/idea and managed to get it on the canvas? Not sure why.
