The beets painting was way too busy, so I carefully mixed what I thought was a very neutral grayish purple and splashed a good deal of it to "unify" the painting. I even tested the color to match a spot on the painting. Well, it certainly looked different than I expected. Way too purple and way too much of it.
So I mixed a lighter and more muted brownish gray purple and then dripped on some off-white. Kind of "broke the rules" by going with very thinned down paint over very "fat" paint.
I'm not sure what I'm feeling about this painting...but I'm still not happy with it.
