The Challenge of Vert et Rouge (aka Alizarin & Viridian)
I have been a bit braver with this challenge in that I have chosen a subject that isn't normally green or pink (unlike my green veg one when the local colour of the objects were green in real life). Also, with this one I did no pre-drawing, just went in with the brush, which I have actually never done before, so another challenge for me. However, looks a horrible mess to me as I really don't like the combination of the two colours and I don't tend to like viridian for it's overtly 'in your face' character. However, a challenge is a challenge and, as Kim said a few days ago, you can only fail if you don't have a go, so from that point of view I must have succeeded (said in a very shaky voice, lol)
