Direct from the farm

The workshop week continues...another one painted from one of Mel's photos. I need to travel to some exotic places to take pictures for subject matter! I guess that would make a good excuse! All the usual suspects when it comes to colors, prussian, ultramarine, cad red for skin tones, raw sienna and alizarin added to make the violets.

Very interesting composition Annelein. It is almost as of this man is moving the box from the left to the right. Lots of dynamics! Great wash too.
Thank you,
Irina

You've made a great job of this! The face and hat in particular and the shadows in the neck. It really is very good :0)
