Mellow Yellow by Julie Riker


     This week's oil painting class was brought to you by the color yellow. Yellow is a challenging color for me so I know my students were finding it tough.  Everyone hung in there and did a great job.

     I am really liking these monochromatic/analogous color paintings.  As color studies, they have a nice feel.
