Saturday was cold but the sun was out and it blazed behind the silhouette of an old barn with a cage of trees in the forground. This is a sketch for a larger painting idea.
The blue I usually use is cobalt, a cooler landscape painter's blue, but the shadows on snow seem to be a warmer color than the lit areas, so for the winter I tend toward ultramarine- a redder blue. It keeps me warmer, too.
