We had a great time at the Autumn Leaves workshop! We played around with colours to create those stunning, vibrant shades that nature puts on display this time of year. Clever brushwork completes the picture. It was so good to see how the leaves stood out against the muted background. The following chart I created for the workshop to shows how many hues can be made from just a few colours

These are the colours we combined to create this stunning effect. The Pthalo Green shade together with Cad orange and Titanium white were used to great effect to provide a backgound for the leaves
