I love the fact that spring is really in full swing here after a long and cold winter; it’s sunny and the moss is growing on the front lawn; irises and tulips are putting up leaves. So, I decided to do an outdoor painting, based on a photo I took of my side lawn and some outdoor chairs last summer.
I wanted to capture the feel of afternoon light on the grass and trees, and had a lot of fun with this one!
Palette used: yellow ochre, burnt sienna, titanium white, ultramarine blue, sap green, cad. yellow light, raw umber

I want to sit there in the chairs.
Wow, what a beautiful painting!!! You captured the afternoon light perfectly! I´d love to sit in these chairs for a while… Wonderful!
Lovely light in this one! Very nice. ~Rita
