#63: Lucky Dice

6" x 6" oil on canvas

This was a second attempt of the same set up. I decided to tone down the color for a while and work on using neutrals. White on white is a bit tricky.

    Tricky but nice. I like the angularity on all the forms, nice echo of the dice in the cup. I also like the tiny die reflection on the upper mug.

    Very colorful whites you have.

    With such a tight value range you created wonderful forms and beautiful color. I like the tension in the painting.

    Love the neutrals and how you added the splashes of color with the underpainting and around the painting. Very nice!!

    I am liking your reduced palette here, Alice. Restrained, yet it still pops with color. Really, really like the muted warm gray bowl as a focal point within the composition.
