A break from my urbanization to my old country ways. :)
This is "stick season" out there, so I like to push things a bit. I needed a change from my urban series, so I headed down one of the roads out here in the Texas hill country. I have to be careful because if I go out without my painter-vision working I don't see anything worth painting! Everything seems to be a couple of shades of wheat, olive and gray. Once I pick up on a subtle clue from the landscape color, I like to select a premixed color plan and see how I can enhance the effect using a very limited palette. This one was done with Yellow Ochre, Quinacradone Magenta, Manganese Violet, Cobalt Blue, Cerulean Blue, Black and White.
