Portrait 6
“Portrait 6”, an oil painting by Anna Chernysheva. ArtMix studio, Almaty. A restrained warm red and ochre palette. There are many shades; the colour is built up in layers. The palette holds around 12 distinguishable shades. The contrast is moderate: the shadows read without fighting the light. The tone is mid-range, without extremes of dark or light. Warm and cool are held in balance. The weight is spread evenly: neither top nor bottom dominates. The left and right halves are equal in lightness. The canvas is vertical. A work from the studio portfolio. A similar piece can be painted to order in your own subject and size.
