Anders Zorn Palette


John showed the class a couple videos about Anders Zorn and John Singer Sargent. The Zorn video pointed out the type of limited color palette he used while making his oil paintings. His palette was mostly comprised of ivory black, yellow ochre, cadmium red and white. We implemented this in class and these are just a few of the color varieties we got. I will show the figure paintings everyone made in the next blog post. In the meantime, here are the links to the videos if anyone is interested.
