Chalk Hills after Carlina by Derek Snowdon

The limited palette works well here and has produced a lovely dramatic scene with that dark sky and the golden fields.

Thanks Thea, I hope Carlina doesn't take offence. I have just had the physio here about my hand and she is pleased and signed me off, I just have to keep all the execrises going. I need to change th palette but it's more a case of getting rid of it and starting fresh.

Agree with Thea - the contrast of the vibrant dark sky and the lovely bright foreground and mid-ground is super. And I like the strong foreground lines that lead the eye into the painting.

Thank you again. The sky could do with a complete change but, we'll see.

Great contrasts Derek!
