Purple

 It was time to take the plunge and make some decisions about color here; in the past— the distant past, actually— I've stuck with a combination of Ultramarine Blue and Alizarin Crimson for the shirt. Today I tried something a little different, adding Thalo Blue into the mix; it softens the purple and gives it a little more dimension. I had to use a house paint brush to apply the paint evenly across large areas. It's not quite right yet but at least I've got a base color to work with.
