My daughter in flute practice. She is playing C. Charminade's
"Concertino"--a dreamy, dramatic, and difficult piece. She is
enraptured in the beauty of the music!
Why black and white? It is the class assignment by Danni Dawson. I was allowed to use only three "colors"--white, Torrit gray, and black.
Torrit gray is by Gamblin, made from the previous year's leftover
paints. It varies from year to year. This year's batch seems quite warm, so I decided to use it for the skin tone, flute, and background. The hair and shirt were painted with ivory black and the cool gray mixtures of the black and titanium white. I must say I enjoyed the challenge!

| I started blocking in. This year's Torrit gray seems quite warm. Compare
it (the background color) with the cool gray mixed with ivory black and
titanium white. It will be good for the skin tone in this extremely
limited palette painting. |
