There's fun in line, shape, mass, and texture, certainly, especially with variances in tone, but to add hue and chroma to the mix adds two entirely new dimensions to the play. What is that, seven dimensions now?
57) Background

Decided that using up the leftover paint I had on my palette was better than throwing it out - this stuff isn't cheap. This is the result - an interesting background, or a finished piece? Haven't decided yet, though I'll likely add to it later.
58) Face

Mostly playing with creating backgrounds from layered acrylic here - got the impression of a face, so I played with that for awhile.
59) Ocean

Another ocean piece. I'm having a lot of fun with a severely reduced and limited pallete - this here is simply burnt umber, paynes grey, and titanium white. Might add tree silhouette's to this later.
60) RedTrees

Experiment in using a severly limited colour palette in a limited area in an abstract fashion, then building a scene out of it. The red here was deliberatly intended to look almost alien, out of place - that centre of the sun tying in only to the red trees, the yellow of the sun matched in the tree's highlights. Experimenting with strong colours on a fairly netrual background.
Those bits underneath are playing around with color mixing and comparing how colors laid adjacent on the canvas play off each other.
