Many artists are challenged by the color green. I find the color pink to be the more challenging color to mix to my satisfaction. Alizarin crimson was just not cutting it for this cherry tree, so I reached for a tube of crimson lake to get a livelier pink. I was going for a color that would complement the cool trees in the background that were shrouded in mist, and I feel I accomplished that.
