Well, I had a little trouble with this one. I started late, already in the golden hour. I didn't load my palette, as I have been keeping it in the car, so I was out of the tiny bit of viridian, and black (which I use to mix greens). When it came to making a good, strong dark, all I had was ultramarine blue, permanent crimson, Indian yellow and white. As you can probably guess, getting a strong shadow color out of this was a challenge! Challenge aside, I do really like the color harmony achieved by using so few hues. As I finished this one up, the setting sun in the west was calling my name......! Painting number 1459 in 1459 days :)
