Have You Tried Painting with Neutrals? - Featuring Terry Ludwig "Shadows and Shades"
Channel: Monet Cafe' with Artist Susan Jenkins
Date: 2022-02-26

Have you tried painting with a primarily neutral palette? I know we often go for the "punchy" and brilliant colors, but don't ignore those neutrals! Although they may appear lack-luster, they actually create a wonderful foundation to enhance the more brilliant color choices and give you control over focal point strategies. 

Enjoy this tutorial as I paint with primarily a neutral set of pastels by Terry Ludwig.  They have two sets that have some lovely neutrals... "Umber Shadows and Shades," and "Shades of Nature" (links below).
