Hunting the Rails

[Triumph]

Selected for Academic Artists Assoc. devoted to "realistic style in any medium! Except for the tiny flowers I used only two colors-Ultramarine and Burnt Sienna to produce all shades. Limited palette is a good test. There's a RR depot where I've seen the fox on occasion, but I invented the fox placement here. I have many photos of trains since they always fascinated me. Fox photo from MorgueFile. Thanks for looking.

Wow! So very well done! And I would never have imagined that only two colors were used; that certainly stretches the limits of what I thought could be done with such a restricted palette.

I love the limited palette - the addition of the fox is awesome - beautiful!

Very cool, burned sienna/ ultramarine blue is one of my favorite mixes.

Congratulations! This is a lovely painting (no wonder it was selected), and what you have done with such a limited palette is very inspiring.
