Family Picnic


Started this today, from a photo of, oh.... a few decades ago. It was my brother's birthday, and I think we were around the Prescott area? The print from an Ektachrome slide is just as old, and even more faded. Not sure whether this will be a study for a larger version, or if I'll finish this and call it good. Pondering.
Work in Progress.

While doing some color mixing to find different ways to get neutrals (for a different painting), I decided to compare some green mixtures too. So I smeared some of them on this with a palette knife. Hm. They need to be neutralized--but that's easy enough. (Later!) Wish I'd left more of the dark neutral tone showing through.
