Talk to me about coral....

[SuzyQ]

I used up my gorgeous bit of pink coral and moved onto the orange stuff. All of a sudden I can't work coral. It came out sooty. I tend to work oxygen rich so what am I doing wrong? And btw, can I say I hate this shade!!

Suzy, Have you tried mixing the coral with some yellow? I like it better that way. Pinks and I never have gotten along well so they are banished to a slot in storage and ignored. If you can get a pink color out of anything try mixing it with the coral and see what blooms.
