The first study of the day is featuring my climbing roses in the garden. Some unusual colours to mix the paint for this study.
The second study is about the same flower pots of yesterday but with a different colour palette and with the strong light snd shadow.

In this day I finally inaugurated my new painting setup: the 12x9-inch easel and 16-inch panel holder by DayBreak Easel, and my carbon-fibre tripod by K&F Concept.
As experimenting is fun and makes you learn new things, I decided to use different a colour palette to try different colour mixing.
The first study is on the top left and it depicts part of my garden and the sky.

This is another oil painting featuring the beauty of countryside, where nature is lush and you can walk under a big sky.
I liked the path leading to a distant field behind the line of trees and the open sky above with many passing clouds. The sense of peaceful movement was what I tried to recreate in this landscape.
