Titchy Titian (End of the first series)

Small scale version of Titians Bacchus and Ariadne in oil on MDF board 43x40cm I feel I really know the painting now, and how the composition works. There are some fantastic plays between light and dark and the distancing of objects. I'm much happier with the way I mix oil colours, I only used eight colours in the whole picture, white, burnt umber, ultramarine, geranium, chrome orange, lemon yellow, veridian, and a smidgeon of black when I could quite get it dark enough.
