Teacup Shelly Blue

Update of Shelly Blue teacup painting. It's getting there. One more session with it and I'll most likely call it done.


Couple of surprises along the way. First, gold has a lot of rose in it. You expect yellows, browns, even some green. But the rose surprised me. Second, shadows still work best with some purple. Wasn't expecting that. I use it a lot with portrait work but it makes a pretty good shadow even on still life.
