Pennsylvania Farm



Oil
11"x14"

This is the painting for the DSFDF blog. Karin gave the challenge of working from a B&W photograph. So, with no color reference to hold to, I cut loose with a play of contrasting colors. I really enjoy pushing the color and placing warm and cool color combinations together.

Wow...really gorgeous, Jerry. Love all that red and orange and the way the colors show under areas, particularly that small bright band of red next to the blues.
