Sushi

I love playing with unique colors and limited palettes. For this painting I used only three colors. Titanium White is a fairly ubiquitous and necessary pigment. But the other two are fairly wild selections: Phthalo Turquoise and Napthol Red. So much fun seeing how big of a universe I could build using these two pigments. Turns out it's a fairly wide and interesting sandbox to play in. I love how this turned out with a lot of interesting mark making, atmosphere, and color harmonies. This painting is based on a photo I took while dining at one of my favorite San Diego sushi places that is now no more, North Park Sushi.
