Herons in Blue,Almost there

Here we go. I've worked again on my herons today. I like the abstract blues wandering thru so I think I'm almost done. What do you think?? I want the herons
to stand out but not be overdone. I"m going to look at it for a few days and decide. The blues here are ultramarine blue and thalo blue. Those are the only blues I use.  What blues do you like?? Talk to you tomorrow... Sadie, the puppy is sulking, she just got her flea med. put on her back..love to each of you,Diana

    A sulking Sadie is a quiet Sadie? Maybe a good thing now and again?! LOL I like this piece just as it is. It is beautiful!

    Sherlock had his done yesterday too! He also hates it!
    I love Cerulean blue... It's a gorgeous colour!
    Your Herons are just beautiful as they are :0)

    I can't imagine you over doing a painting.
    As for blues, I've been looking at photos where the camera adds lavender to the blues. I've begun using purples for shading. Prussian blue is my favorite next to cobalt blue.

    I think the Herons looks just perfect. No need for doing anything more. Looking very nice! The blues that use most lately is Antwerp blue, Frensh Ultramarin and Paynes gray. I have others too but I don´t use them that often. Those are Winsor blue red shade and Winsor blue green shade. Winsor & Newton recomended them as primary colours. Those two plus Frensh Ultramarine. I also like best to paint with transparent colours, so I also choose from that.

    Diana - these Herons do look finished to me. I love the blues - there are so many to pick from. I use a lot of Cobalt blue and Ultramarine. Thanks so much for sharing dear. Sadie doesn't look very happy.
