August 19 - Moonlight Horse

"Moonlight Exercise"  This painting is a really quick study that I'll take with me to Kentucky next month, to help explain the color system for moonlight scenes during the workshop I'll be teaching.  I'll do a second one with far more muted colors, to help the students understand that with advanced practice, the colors you choose become more subtle and thusly more beautiful to the human eye.
  It's an oil, 5 x 7 inches.  The horse was done without any yellow but yellow ochre.
$100 from the dailypaintings.com site for this date.
