Whites


The painting didn't really come alive until I added the whites. First I started with the reflected sunlight on the rocks. This titanium white has a little raw umber, burnt sienna, and paynes gray. As I moved up the painting to the larger sections of white I used a mixture of titanium white and cadmium yellow deep. For the shadowed white under the first penguin, I used either a warm tone (raw umber mixed in) or cool tone (cerelean blue and ultramarine blue.)
