Experimenting with unusual primaries lends some subdued colors quite dissimilar from the brights used earlier in this 100 day challenge. The pink underpainting shows through, adding an element of delight. The network of vines and leaves support the slightly shaded chardonnay grapes in this "Pale Vine" painting. I can't help but add in a few zinger colors, as I feel the painting becomes more balanced. I'm enjoying this.
