Lake Monticello Cove


9" x 12" oil on Canvasboard

I painted this study overlooking a back cove of Lake Monticello near my home.  I used my usual pallette of Ultramarine Blue, Cad. Yellow Light, Cad. Red Light, Yellow Ochre, a touch of Burnt Sienna, and Tit. White.  It was a calm, peaceful day with hardly a cloud in the sky.  Even so, there was enough color reflected in the water to make this a bit of a challenge yet fun.
