Good Morning Everyone I can't believe it's been almost two months since I last posted in here. Boy did this summer go fast. I've had company since the 18th of June, so very little painting done. While my granddaughters were here we made a visit to a local state park. This painting is from one of the marshes that I photographed. The only thing different is I changed the time of day. For the sky I used Cobalt Blue, Aliz Crem and Cad. Orange and carried this through into the water. For the marshes I used Sap gr, Cob Bl, Ultra Bl, Winsor Green ( Blue Shade), Quin Gold, Burnt Umber and Cad Yellow. I painted this the first time and really didn't like it. So I figured what the heck do it again using stronger doses of the same color and it turned out better than I thought.
I hope everyone has had a lovely summer and please do comment. Thanks all of you for looking.
Just lovely! We had those sky colors the other day. You've capture them spot on!
ReplyDeleteNora, it's very nice to see your paintings again. This one has such superb colors - it's a beautiful and most serene painting.
ReplyDeleteThis has been such a hot summer here - it's nice to have sunshine, but it's been too hot to paint:-)
Truly beautiful and carrying the sky colors into the water is perfect!
