A beautiful, heavily overcast day for a landscape paint, the snow started falling while I was out. The wind is so still now, I hardly feel the cold. It has warmed up to 23 degrees! This is my maiden voyage with this new Guerrilla Painter 8x6 thumb box. I like this size! It is not a size I paint often, but really perfect for a cold day with a small painting window. I used the blueish underpainting for this, and it was certainly quieter on my eyes than the pumpkin shade. I like it for a seasonal change, the jury is out on whether I'll keep it around for the long haul. Only time will tell. I used a pale yellow for the early plein air years, this burnt orange tone for the last 8 or so years, but this is a change in temperature from warm to cool. That is different indeed. Painting number 1842 in 1842 days.
