Thanks Don
I appreciate your comments
The process for this paintingwas a rather an emotional response or reflection, with out very much logical planning and application.   When first completed I was fairly  happy with the result.  However the next day when logic and reason kick in again I am not so sure. Your comments are quite valid

I used Golden Acrylic Paints

Phalo Blue (Green shade)
Quinacridone Magenta
Dairylide Yellow and
Hansa Yellow
Zinc White and
Titanium White
Purple Dioxine

Good to see you working in acrylics, but it's hard to make out the forms. There is little definition with aerial perspective between the foreground and middle ground colors.

The magenta and cyan colors are right on, the yellow is too orange for being the only yellow. A yellow like Hansa or cad yellow light would help. Even Indian yellow transparent would lighten to a purer yellow plus give darker neutrals.

What do you think?
