  -  Messing About with Paint   -  Phantoms in the Forest

Oil on Canvas 77cmx101cm

Finished fighting with my painting of the forest. A bunch of colours used in the painting that haven’t been part of my pallet for awhile. A forest floor of Yellow Ochre, Mineral Violet Light, Cadmium Yellow Deep, Naples Yellow Light, Cobalt Blue, and Magenta. Trees of Permanent Red Orange, Cinnabar Green, Cadmium Yellow Light, Cerulean Blue, Yellow Ochre, Indian Yellow, Magenta, Ultramarine Blue and Permanent Madder Deep. Rose Madder, Magenta Quinacridone, and Naples Yellow for highlights. 
A fun evening searching for the elephants hidden in the painting of the forest in Knysna.
