Grays, Paxton, books . . .




Marvin:

Thanks for your insight to the color behind the colors in black and raw umber.

Is there a book, or books, that I can buy that will give me this kind of basic information?

You'd be surprised (well, probably not) at the number of artists to whom I have posed questions of this sort who simply could not answer, except with vague references to mixing complementaries.

I've been at this (mostly on my own) for a number of years, and I've always had a haunting feeling there was more to color than what I saw on my palette.

You're a good man, Charlie Brown! \

I have a nice ($) commission coming up. A couple more like that, and you may wake up one day and find this retired old fire horse looking back at you in one of your workshops. Let me warn you, I ask a lot of questionss.
