A Horse to Water

This beautiful, balmy day finds me "pumping up the color" in this landscape.  Perhaps I am being influenced by the barren winter landscape, and rebelling with my bolder hues!  I can't quite decide whether this is finished or not, so I will let it rest on the easel and look at it with fresh eyes tomorrow.  My wood panel was first primed with a pumpkin orange color, which can be seen peeking through here and there.  I do love painting on that color - it adds to the energy of the paint.  I have a whole stack of bare wood panels - just waiting for my attention.  If only there were more hours in every day!  Painting number 788 in 788 days.
