A recent commission...
This painting presented a challenge, since the reference photo was taken in the middle of winter, and my client wanted it to be spring. So, I picked a few of my favorite colors for a spring palette and went from there. I used a sanded paper with a light blue/gray background which I think was a good choice. This paper in particular is a little coarse for my taste, which is great if you need to put endless layers on. This subject was fairly straightforward though so I didn't feel the need for as many layers. Still, I'm happy with the result!
