Painting the landscape is the most rewarding. Tweaking the landscape to make it a stronger composition is even better.
Lately, I have been experimenting with quinacridone red and viridian as a mixture which can be seen in the foreground. Also, it is seen in the background in the woodland edge. It may look similar to a 'red brick' color. However, it is a lively color I intend on using in the future.
I have veered away from using payne's gray on it's own. It seems best when mixed with other pigments. So, I have turned to other pigmentations for most of my shadows. Here you can see I have applied the red and green combination.
It is very satisfying to try new colors and experiment with new techniques and brushes.
