Colours in Autumn

September Shore, lithograph 27 x 40 cm © Elizabeth Tyler
Now the leaves are turning colour adding a little warmth to the chilly autumn air. I made this lithograph to depict a combination of two of my favourite subjects, an autumn leaf and a pebble beach. The eight transparent colours I used created numerous nuances where they overlapped each other.
The colours were:
Ultramarine blue
Cobalt blue
Hookers Green
Yellow
Sepia
Crimson red
Vermillion red
Black
