"Hillside Trail"5" X 7" Oil on panel
The nice thing about being a painter is being able to try out the various brands of professional oil paints. I tend to paint normally with Winsor & Newton artist paints because I love their color and am very familiar with their mixing combinations. This painting however was painted using Lukas 1862 oil paints. Lukas has such a buttery feel and great color. The Lukas company has been around for ages and are a pretty trusted name. In a letter to Theo, Van Gogh mentioned how he should have used Lukas paint on a particular painting so I'm very happy with the company of artists who have used Lukas paint. If you get the chance to try them out go for it.
$100.00
Your trees are always a joy to look at, Ron, but it's those foreground paths and grasses that I really love. Nice one, buddy.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for the comments on the painting Ralph. I love putting in those little paths and trails. It's a chore not to do one of those in paintings, hahaha.
