Description One of the assignments for the color theory class I took last semester.  This was the "optical mixture" study.  I could only use the 12 pure colors from the color wheel, and for each color I had to add it's analogous colors and it's complement. And everything was applied with the back tip of a paintbrush.  It was very time consuming  

Materials: bristol board, acrylic paints

Very well done. Yes, this is a time consuming technique; however, if done properly, as you have, the image glows with light and life.
