Mindful Painting Class with Tansy Hargan, The Raisin Exercise

 Yesterday, May 1st, I took a morning color class with TANSY HARGAN.

We were focusing on mindful painting. Hmm, my blobby sample…

Rouge Jaune Bleu

 Rouge, jaune et bleu aquarelle

I bought this little (1 3/4") Limoge-style perfume holder in Passage Jouffroy

 I've been playing with mixing colors: reds + Yellows + blues since I got home

The most basic color triad out there.
 

Maybe I was inspired by these red cafe tables

 

On rue Rambuteau

 

This lemon yellow table top looks just like

 

A tarte au citron

Or Wayne Thiebaud's round yellow cheese painting full of reds and blues too.

 

Red + Yellow + blue are used a lot around food.

Like this boulangerie painting of a wheat girl

Or this chef eating his dinner and licking his chops

Down the street on rue Rambuteau is Cupcake Berko, famous for their colorful mini cupcakes. More goldeny than bright yellow but this tarte fine is still yum.
This post is making me hungry!
