"On a White Horse"

12"x6", Oil on Panel

Sold 

I feel that my limited palette of colors here served me well for this painting! Alizarin yellow, quinacridone red, ultramarine blue, a touch of cerulean and radiant white were the colors I used. Although I would love to see my palette full of a whole spectrum of colors, I am not sure I would know where to start! Ever since I began using a base of the 3 primaries in my paintings, I feel my work has had a harmony I'd never been able to achieve before. When I paint with watercolor, inks and acrylics, I use as many colors as seems right, but in my oils, this seems to be my way of working!

Little Luke is holding an "R", hence the title.  I think I enjoyed painting the surroundings in this as much as I enjoyed painting Luke!

Capturing the cool winter light from the outside and the warm light from the INside was a challenge for me in this painting that I did using my limited palette of colors. I've painted more than one version of this and I think this is my favorite!

This painting is inspired by a late-day walk in NYCity on a gorgeous June day. Capturing the feel of the last bit of heat from the setting sun and the cooler shadows was my challenge in this painting that I did using a limited palette of colors.

The setting of this scene is Union Station in Portland, OR. The reflected lights and colors and the feeling of space makes this painting special for me.

This painting is inspired by a visit to the New York Public Library. I love the challenge of the reflections and using a limited palette of colors.
