Zorn Palette Study

In my continuing quest to get nicer greens I thought I'd take a different approach. I've been experimenting on reducing my palette to 6 colours + some earth tones and this led to going down to 4 using the palette often associated with Zorn. This was done with Yellow Ochre, Cad Red Light, Lamp Black and Titanium White. It was interesting and challeging but it did get me thinking about colour theory a lot more. I think I will try this again with a different red and yellow and change the black to a paynes grey.

November Paintings

This is a painting I finished a few months ago off a reference photo. It was doe in oils on 11x14 inch canvas named "Aussie Bush"

I also went back to the small paintings finishing my first en plein air finished at Nurragingy reserve. It's aptly named "Nurragingy on a Summers Day" It was painted in oild on canvas board 7x5 inches.

The final one to finish off this post is a small oil on 4x6 canvas named "The Old Mill". I hope you like them and can see some progress.
