Torrit grey and agave w/ yellow

Gamblin paints has a contest to make a painting using only Torrit Grey, black and white.  I like the idea of torrit, a paint made from all of the pigment dust they collected making paints last year.  Unfortunately for a color addict like me this is HARD.

I usually work on several paintings at a time.  I planted this agave about 5 years ago in San Antonio.  Then they were only in the yards of old Mexican women.  Now they are chic.  They grow like crazy and this one has lots of “pups”.  I took these photos on our last visit to SA.  I’m thinking of doing a screen with the agave images.   I’m also exploring a possible studio so I have some more room.   It seems foolish since I’m not making any money to pay for it.  But if one screen sells, it’ll pay for quite a few things.   Since the economy tanked I’m not so faithful about financial things.Agave with Yellow WildflowersMullein
