I have (at least) two areas in the “colour” world that cause me problems…value…and my love of monochromatic colour schemes.

I am enjoying the overall predominance of the yellow in Adele’s piece….but on close scrutiny a number of other colours are there. 

The first I added was the blue. I got out all my bits and pieces of dark blue and one by one laid them on the area…stood back…and pondered. (unfortunately my camera brightens up both the dark and dull blues….so the differences aren’t so apparent in the photos)

I’m pleased with the overall effect.

Then I tried to choose a red. It appears in the choker, and in the section of squares at the top left hand corner. I went through the same process…

….but didn’t like anything!

I’m sure someone with greater colour knowledge…could say in a flash…which one, if any to choose…but until I can figure it out…

I’m just going to leave the red sections and carry on elsewhere.
