Black=drama, at least in controlled quantities.

Not sure why you are avoiding black but it sounds like some silly rule an academic painting teacher made up.<br /><br />But it seems like you did the right thing anyway and incorporated black when you wanted!<br /><br />Coyote Loves You!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
