I don’t usually work with crimson—not that I haven’t used it before, but it’s rarely been the main color. This time, I let it set the mood for the entire painting, and I absolutely love how it’s turned out. Even though, like always, it’s made with a limited color palette, it still feels vibrant and colorful and full of life. It’s a little reminder that ‘colorful’ doesn’t always mean many colors—sometimes, it’s about the joy, energy, and happiness a painting carries, no matter how simple the palette.
