Cattle in Pasture Snow


I am turning my eyes to the western hill today and working on my cattle skills.  The snow is melting on this gray day, and the landscape is alive with atmosphere.  I paint the mood of the day with brush and palette knife, using oils.  I'm using a different violet on my palette, to see how it works in the winter landscape.  With a touch of mixed gray, the violet fades into a lovely shadow hue.  I think I just might keep this one on the palette until I go to Florida  - where it won't do at all!  Painting number 4034 in 4034 days.
