Red Coat and Strappy Sandals, Toronto


6" x 6"
Oil on Board
Walking in downtown Toronto on a rainy evening.
Red is so challenging. What color are the shadows? Its a strong color, but how does one make it stand out and look lighter without using white or yellow and diluting the wonderful red. So many complications in a picture.

I love the way you 'interwove' the red into the reflections! This is wonderful!

Reds can be tricky but you used them masterfully in this! Love the way you used them to travel across the canvas. Great reflections!
