This bird is sitting on a rock and singing spring time song! I painted this landscape for my Oil Painting Class I am currently teaching.
Artisans Winsor and Newton - water mixable oils are used in this painting. I was fun to use a limited palette from the beginner's set - U. Blue, Ali. Crimson, Yellow, White.

Hi Prerana,
ReplyDeleteWow, I love the colors in this painting. You really know how to mix your colors from the limited palette. Great work!

Hi John, Thanks for looking. Actually one can get a great color range just with 3 basic colors!
DeleteLove the textures and the colors, they are so cheerful, apt for the title! I havent tried water based oils, do you prefer them to regular ones?
ReplyDeleteThanks Padmaja. It is Holi and seem like all Holi colors to me.
DeleteOh water based oils are quite same as regular oils. Except more convenient to clean brushes with just water. I don't do plein air, but its great for it!
DeleteI love all the blues in this painting, and the bird seems to be looking far away and kind of meditating :-) A striking work !
ReplyDeleteHmm... I should have put the title - "meditation in spring" :) I like the idea of meditation on such a colorful, peaceful atmosphere!
