I once saw a local artist do a portrait using pastels starting with blue on the left, and ending with red on the right, but somehow the face in the middle looked FLESH!!!

(I was infatuated with Bernie Fuchs at that moment and couldn't resist experimenting with the effect in my own work.) I really loved the atmospheric result... but I seriously confused the client. "What color is our house going to be?" Haha. I guess sometimes you have to be literal. In the world of architectural rendering, it's always a balancing act between fine art, illustration, and specification.Jim Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11445910147970356728noreply@blogger.com
