My aunt & uncle have commissioned a painting for their front room, with the stipulations that it must be a) Classy, and b) in semi-muted earth tones, with red accent. At first I wanted to be like, "Have you seen my art?", but I really wanted to do it and am happy for the challenge. I tried my best, and this morning I finished:
At first I tried to stay away from the blues & greens (and purples), but they were calling to me. So I put them in. I may go in with a little more beige, tweak a few things, etc, but overall I think at this point the best thing would be to see how it looks in the room.
They have two other spaces in the same room that may need filling, so it looks like I'll have plenty of practice in earth-tones and muted colors in the next few paintings!
