Time to get fired up fellow artists.
We're thinking RED.
Warm. Bright, Dark. Light. And maybe contrast it with green. No blues or yellows but nice greens or perhaps greys, browns, blacks or great mauves and purples as in Cézanne's classic work below right.
If you want to think just RED that is fine.
Red makes a statement.
Look at these paintings 'borrowed' from the internet and from fellow FHAS artists.
One sees how the artists use red to great effect. For some it's a hint of red, for others it is full on.
But it doesn't have to be as complicated as all those great works above.
Think smaller items: sweets and candy, autumn leaves, socks, peppers, lipstick, a mug, a glass of Cab Sav, tomatoes, flowers, a hat ...
Look at some photos where red is again important. You are sure to be inspired!
