This is the color print for "Seen The Demons", there are a total of seven colors on this block. The print's demeanor is consistent to that of my previous color print "The Ride". However this print appears to be later in the night as the sky becomes much darker and the figures much grayer. I put a lot of energy in developing my palette. I think about what it is I am trying to convey and then manipulate the hues till I feel they are appropriate. I am constantly juxtaposing different hues next to one another on my palette to see the relationship that the hues have to one another. I find that primarily being a painter it is easier for me to mix a more convincing palette.
The palette for the series The things we do... is primarily a gray palette. I am not trying to convey a sense a warmth. I want the viewer to approach the prints with caution.
