Fall Colors

Palette for oil painting
As I stepped in to my studio this morning, and saw the palette of mixed oil paints, I was struck by the shift to fall colors... neutrals, and some bright warms are moving in, and greens quieting. I love the grey blue of the sky on many of these recent days too! I've been out plein air painting on a few crisp mornings just after dawn, and am also working eagerly on a large (3 ft. x 4 ft.!) oil painting of Mt. Nittany in the studio- am enjoying working on this big scale, with lots of room for gesture and texture!
