Mixed Media Geologic Abstract, "Yellow Yellow" , 081419, © Carol Nelson Fine Art

                                            
                                              "Yellow Yellow" , 24 x 18, by Carol Nelson

I can't really decide which orientation I prefer for this geologic abstract.   This painting is an experiment.  First of all, it's all yellow in various shades.  Second, the lines between the rock shapes are white instead of black.  Not sure how I feel about it.

Mixed Media Collage Landscape, "Raleigh Tree Demo" by Carol Nelson Fine Art

"Raleigh Tree Demo" , 10x10 inches, by Carol Nelson

As often happens, this is a painting I started in a class, but didn't have time to finish.  I just finished it here in my studio after 2 months!  This is typical of the collage treescapes we do in my Abstracted Trees workshop.

What I love most about this one is the color palette.  That green gold and purple combination is gorgeous.  The tree trunks are cut out of 98 lb mixed media paper.  I find that is the perfect weight paper for this work.

Notice the color gradations in the tree trunks.  I had two puddles of paint (Golden Fluid Acrylic):  dioxazine purple (with some white,) and green gold.  When you mix these two colors together you get that beautiful brownish gold color.  I LOVE that!  It's the perfect transition between the purple bottoms and the green tops of the trunks.

Mixed Media Geologic Abstract, "Ancient Mysteries II" © Carol Nelson Fine Art

"Ancient Mysteries II", 30x40 in, by Carol Nelson

Here you can see THE MAGIC OF QUINACRIDONE NICKEL AZO GOLD fluid acrylic. Anyone who knows me knows that Golden's Quin Nickel Azo Gold is my favorite color. Here is an example why.

This painting has been hanging around my studio for 4 years. I originally painted it in shades of pink, mauve, and violet.  I hate pink, but wanted to prove that I could do it. Finally, I said to myself, Screw it. I'm going to give it the magic makeover.

I painted over most of the surface with Quin Gold (watered down a bit to add just a glaze of color).
I also added a little more light yellow-green, as seen near the center, and some more contour lines.

The new version is a palette I'm so much more comfortable with.  Now I won't cringe every time I look at this piece.
