I will tackle these 2 limiting beliefs further: adding black to my palette and eliminating a good percentage of my midtones (color) as I explore value centric relationships and an embrace of thumbnails as a means to explore design aspects at the onset and crossroads of my intuitive works. Here is what I'm currently working on - she's acrylic - and my current goal is to add more warmth into my focal point as well as fully push into the darks (my darks feel a little timid and too chromatic right now - actually, the whole painting is too chromatic).
