Radiant Orchid

Pantone Color of the Year 2014

Radiant Orchid

I thought I might try to create an Edges painting with Radiant Orchid in mind.  First, I have to make this color but my initial attempt below has too much ultramarine blue and  need to increase the alizarin crimson.

It is difficult to try matching the color from my phone.  The goal of this painting would be to find those colors that make radiant orchid sing.  At first glance, it seems like a difficult color - a good exercise for me!
