The sunlight was illuminating these awnings from across the railroad tracks. Scouting for the perfect location, I found a great spot in the shade with the babbling fountain to serenade me as I worked. The color was fabulous! I have a new blue on my palette - an Italian Capri blue, and it is perfect for the awning on the right. Applied straight from the tube, it glows. If I mix the tiniest bit of another color to it, it melts away. It must be very translucent! So, I lay it straight, and don't touch it again. It is a beautiful paint. The other is a mix of a radiant Gamblin turquoise with a little of a Williamsburg turquoise. Love these tiny dots of paint on the palette when I need them! Painting number 1977 in 1977 days.
