Woodblock Wednesday - colourful!

The starting point for my colour swatches was a sunrise seen through the bathroom window. I'm looking for "something different"...
Mission Gold indigo plus Winsor & Newton permanent rose (left) and
Mission Gold vermillion (right)

Mission Gold cerulean plus permanent rose (left) and vermillion (right)

Mission Gold lemon yellow plus Rowney prussian blue (left) and Mission vermillion, with a bit of permanent rose in the darkest swatch
The colours in my photos have been distorted not just by the camera but also by being seen on screen -
... and some further variations ("no filter") ...

The combinations are starting points. After mixing the glorious bright colours, I used what was left on the palette - rather dull!

Tools, paper, paint  - it does tend to spread to all available space -
Veronica was very sensibly and methodically working on her xmas cards - this one is waiting for the green layer (holly leaf) and some dark red to sculpt the berries -
