Duet

We still haven't had much snow and the grass is still green which is very unusual for this time of the year, although we have had a green Christmas on occasion.

Today I decided that a winter scene would be nice.

I washed in Antwerp blue for the sky and added a touch of alizarin crimson to the blue and added a little colour to the snowy hill.

I was just playing with alizarin crimson, raw sienna, burnt sienna and Antwerp blue for the background trees.

Lastly I painted in a ski trail and a couple of skiers.

This is an original 9" x 12” framed watercolour painting for $180.00 and can be seen at KAGS during their Winter Celebration Show from 04 December 11 - 12 January 12.
