Garden Path in Spring

January 2, 2010 - 8" x 10", acrylic on stretched canvas


Welcome to 2010.

This was a quick painting I did over the New Years break. I think the rain and fog here in Sacramento lead me to thinking about something warmer and voila.

The sky is creulean blue with titanium white; the trees are magenta, purple (magenta combined with cobalt blue) and titanium white; the grass is a new color for me, green cobalt, to which I added cobalt blue (in the shadows) and white (where the sun lands.) The not-yet-leafing tree in the distance is a comination of yellow ochre, cerulean blue, raw umber and titanium white.
