<p>[QUOTE="Bev aka thelmasstuff, post: 28458, member: 23"]In art class, one is taught to underpaint in the opposite color. If your painting is going to end up with warm colors, your shadows and underpainting should be in cool colors. It's possible she painted in the shapes and tones in blues and then overpainted in the oranges and yellows and what you are seeing is the underpaint showing. I'd characterize this as a student work.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
