Freaky lighting on the farm: Cambridge-Battenville Rd.

65  F  sunny, no wind.

The evening light is truly an awesome thing to behold, as light and shadow play over the land.

The scene started out pretty intolerable, but judging the direction the sun would move, I figured it would change for the better.

I mixed up some white with a trace of cadmium lemon and put it down for the lower sky. the reflected light off the trees, made my white look yellow. It was a little freaky, being in this bright lemony yellow haze(and not even knowing it!)

My tone was pretty dark, maybe too dark for today.

I use the pallet knife to draw into the paint, it's convenient way to work, back and forth......

Here is where I ended up.

My scene at the start.

Nice spot, Ollie came, but was bored.

My pallet.

The "Money Shot" from today, what would freaky lighting produce, but a freaky photo.
