“The only pigments I used in this watercolor were yellow, red and blue. Three basic colors and the white of the paper. I think I did it before class and used it as a sample of what you could do. I limited myself to a tube of ultramarine, and I don’t know what yellow I used and for the red I used an aliseren crimson. This was before I made my own pigments and before my Zen colors.”
