10th Lesson - Greek Steps
We painted in that last big rock. It is in shadow, so I made up a dark mix of Indian Red, Cadmium Red and Ultramarine Blue and scraped it on with my palette knife. I then went over it with a lighter mix of Yellow Ochre and Red Gold, this time dabbing with the knife. I added some pieces of broken pottery with the Ultramarine Blue and blobbed on some rocks to make it look messy.
