Purple Hats

Title: Purple Hats
Medium: Schmincke Horadam watercolours
Echtviolett (discontinued)
Light Ochre #655
A very little bit of Indigo #498 as it was impossible to get more contrast. I had to choose between some red for the faces and a darker colour to add more depth, so I decided to go with Indigo.

Wrap-up of the 1+1 Colour ChallengeTHE 1+1 COLOUR CHALLENGE
One is only allowed a maximum of two colours and the whole range of their mixes, plus a minimal dab of a third colour to accentuate some parts, (e.g. a touch of red to the cheeks or something small like that).
The focus should be on one specific colour, ideally the second colour should enhance the first. Secondary colours are probably a good choice. Use colours you normally avoid, or don't particularly like.
A white gel pen can be used for highlights. Any traditional medium is OK, but digital must be left out! (My medium will be... watercolour! )
You're welcome to join in or to suggest colours.
After working with colours I normally wouldn't use, I've come to discover some nice properties to them. Here's the bunch of watercolours created for the challenge.
