These were done 11"x14" on Arches c/p 140 lb. paper.
I use a mix of raw sienna and a touch of Rose Madder, it gives a pinky, peach tone. Lots of water, .. Some cobalt blue for shadow and since I never use tube black it was made by a mix of Thalo blue, alizarin, and a touch of new gamboge. It gives a very intense dark.
That dark can be adjusted to a greenish black or a warmer black by adjusting the ratio of the pigments. But very little water.
