Limited Palette
Study of a Bouguereau study. Oil on palette paper. This is just straight paint thinned with Gamsol.

The woman looks great! Thanks for sharing this!
I was once tasked with painting a 3-D foam sculpture using Napthol Red, Cobalt Blue and Cadmium Yellow. I was astounded how easily they made the grange of colors I needed. Thanks so much for sharing this!
Hi Michael,
Your right, those three colors work great together. Ive used a similar palette in the past.
Another great palette, (a warm and cool palette) is Titanium white, Cadmium Orange, and Cobalt Blue. Those three pigments make music together.
All the best, Jason
Jason,
I found your blog through a comment on using viridian as a base for painting veins on Gurney Journey. I never knew about that, so thanks for passing along the information. Your blog is also a fascinating journey. This post on the flexibility of a limited palette in use is most helpful. Thank youl
Yours,
