I have been scrolling through some artists for inspiration, and mixing a few paint colors to decide what route to take. Picking the first color is always the hardest for me, and I know I tend to work with the same cool colors and I want to branch out but when I do I never end up liking the piece. After a lot of mixing I settled on a deep blue color, and mixed in touches of black with a wet palette knife. I then mixed up a white-gray color that had a touch of blue in it just to make it a cool gray. I added that on top to break up the composition of the piece. I also made sure I covered all of the blank canvas with white and cool gray. The blues were still wet so it all mixed together and I'm pretty happy with it. I really need to clean off my palette though because its making it so hard to mix colors!
