Another painting of #HeatonPark with a limited colour palette.

After a visit to Heaton Park a few weeks ago the place still inspires me.  This time I am using a limited palette of only seven colours and white. Hopefully this will allow the painting to achieve a greater balance with easy colour harmonies. It is supposed to make you think about the tone and composition.
I can use warm and cool colours to achieve contrast rather than adding more colour.

It's said that Monet sometimes only used about three colours; a warm and cool of each, to achieve his masterpieces. These were;

• Cadmium Yellow Lt. - Cool (toward green) opaque light yellow
• Cadmium Yellow Med. - Warm opaque yellow
• Cadmium Red Lt. - Warm (toward orange) opaque light red
• Alizarin Permanent - Cool (toward blue) transparent red
• Ultramarine Blue - Warm (toward red) transparent blue
• Coerulean Blue - Cool (toward green) semi-transparent blue
• Flake  white                                                                                                                                            Not sure if this will work but it will force me to think about what I want to achieve. I painted in my usual way, as shown above, using a palette knife and hope that my painting works.       Quite pleased with it and like the idea of changing my colour palette now and again.
