Thanks Sharon---always appreciate your words. Thanks for taking the time to view.

Garth--I find this combination of colours quite effective. The Prussian blue when mixed with earth colours produces a greenish quality to the resulting colour that can be used for a great deal of things. Burnt sienna and prussian blue, for example, produces a luscious, deep green perfect for evergreens (for landscape purposes)...and mixed with white, it serves as my neutralizing colour for flesh tones, that cool needed to balance off the warm. The Pozzuoli earth has its counterparts in other brands, I suppose, although with some subtle differences; and the yellow ochre is pretty much a must in any earth palette.
Thanks for your comments.
