Here's another exercise from James Gurney's video. I feel my brushwork is still a little clumsy but I can feel myself being more confident with the traditional medium.
What I discovered about this painting is that palettes can be extremely simple. Most of this was done with Titanium White, Ivory Black, Ultramarine Blue Deep, Raw Sienna, and very, very sparingly, both Chromium Oxide Green and Alizarin Crimson for some of the grass and the lawn chars in front of the house. The vast majority of the painting was done with just those four colors. It amazes me how much can be accomplished with such a limited palette.
