The exercise was to draw a sort of looping line around on the canvas and then to fill the spaces in with paint. The trick was that for each painting, we were only supposed to use contrasting colors (like red and green or blue and orange) together with white and black. We could mix the paints together to make different shades, but not add any more colors of paint. Here are the three paintings that resulted, together with one I did using only black, white and shades of grey:

| Black & White |

| Blue & Orange |

| Purple & Yellow |

Way to go Heather! I love that you're experimenting, and that you're sharing as you go along.
