Lamplight on the Snow
Oil on panel, 6x6
GOT Art Gallery Holiday Trunk Show |
It has been a long time since I have painted a nocturne - I forgot how much I love it! The sky was not yet completely dark, with still a twilight glow at the horizon. This scene drew me in with the yellow lamplight shining over the snow. The cool shadows darted in and out, reflecting off the snow. For this painting, I have used prussian blue, instead of my usual ultramarine. I have only started to use this color, and it is so fun to experiment! This will be another painting at GOT Art at the show on December 5th. I will be working non-stop to get as many winter scenes done before that date - so wish me luck! Painting number 316 in as many days :)
