This fall in Vermont is ending abruptly as frequent rains and snow have entered the picture. Not to mention low temperatures. October had lovely fall colors and great weather but this weekend the changing of the calendar is sending us to the edge of winter.
Painting the landscape outside has suddenly become rather challenging. The diminished light levels and time change are forcing me to paint inside or at different times of the day.
The other day I got this watercolor in, with a view towards the west of Brattleboro, across a local field. Capturing some of the local colors can be challenging, yet satisfying. I feel like burnt sienna and raw umber are an integral part of the natural landscape at this time of the year.
