Antique Blue and Ochre Colourway

‘Antique Blue and Ochre’ is the first tonal palette I created. I borrowed the colours to form this palette from a miniature painting I saw at the Museum of Fine Arts in San Francisco. It depicted a palace in India and I transcribed its colours into my print of the Brighton Royal Pavilion. The Indo-Saracenic style of the Brighton Pavilion validated this exercise. I did it instinctively with the result of a modern print collection with evocative echoes from the past.
