When I laid down the base colours for this treescape, I was thinking of a largely realistic colour scheme. The base colours were to form complementary shadows. But now I find that I kind of like the odd colours. Maybe I shall use a bit of naturalistic colour but keep rather more of the complements than I was going to. I'd love to hear your opinions. http://amanda-bates-artist.blogspot.com/2014/11/work-in-progress-newtown-common.html (Apologies for absence; we have a shortage of Internet in the village. I'm borrowing a neighbour's at the moment)
