Papercut collage e-course

I decided that I wanted to work with pattern on pattern since I feel that is a real weak area for me.  What I read today was that when work with color it is a good idea to use tone and undertone to create great harmony.  My thinking was that would be a good way to approach pattern against pattern.

Bonjour,

Un collage très intéressant. J'aime l'harmonie des couleurs et les formes qui se rencontrent.
Gros bisous ♡
So then the solid color is the tone on tone? I like this where will it go from here? you are really changing things up .

Thank you Martine!!!

Cathy...the way that I understand tone and undertone is this: lets take red for example....let's say the warm red is the tone and then the undertone would be a cool red. It is really as simple as that. However, it has big payoffs in terms of compositional color. Does that make sense?

Peach Peony....Day 24

  6"X 6" Oil Ampersand Gessobord $125.00 I'm ready to chill out after this one.  It was really HARD!   So many petals going all different ways.  I am pleased with the results.  I have to laugh at myself....I thought of showing a step by step process in the painting of this peony....but....never looks like anything until the last few strokes!  I am happy with this painting however I got here.  This painting is found here :
