101 Oil Studies, No. 82
Objective: Sky study expanded to full composition
I took a favorite sky photograph in northern New Mexico on the last day of May 2009. I previously used this setting seven months ago for study No. 55 ("Mona Niara" in my 101 Oil Studies album), which gives me a chance to gage progress.
Painted in 12 sessions: 03 to 30 September 2025
Pigments (Winsor & Newton Artists' oil colour unless otherwise noted): Warm grey (Rembrandt), ivory black, indigo, cerulean blue, yellow ochre, Naples yellow, Naples yellow light, terra verte, Vandyke brown, transparent red earth (Gamblin). Mediums: Gamsol. Oleogel.
Centurion OP DLX oil primed linen, 50.8 x 40.6 cm (20 x 16 inches).
