| I am just a painting machine....lately....here's another one I did this weekend This is on a 24"X12" canvas. I used indian yellow, raw umber, and white for the sky; sap green, cad yellow, lemon yellow, just a little of yellow ocher and perm. green for the grass; raw umber, burnt seina, yellow ocher and black for the tree trunk; sap green, lemon yellow, cad yellow, cobalt blue, perm green and a little burnt seina for the leaves. for the swing I used black, white and yellow ocher. This one was a fun one to paint. sorry about all the light reflection on the painting -- trying to get a good picture is tough, here in Seattle it rains too much to take it outside - if anyone has ideas how to minimize that issue, I'd love to hear. | |

| Beautiful painting! Very interesting scene! Love the idea of the swing it adds interest to scene that could have seemed barren without it. | |

| Sweet painting, Dana. I have the same problem photographing paintings as you do - rainy west coast weather. Short of moving to drier locale all you can do is grab a rain-free moment outdoors or take a daytime indoor shot in a room with lots of natural light. | |
