There aren't too many evenings when the sky hands us a platter of primary colours, but this evening was one of them. I enjoyed the brief moments of this show of colour before dark.

I had these colors on my palette and wanted to use them before they crusted-over. It's a pretty dramatic red, yellow, blue sky painting.  One I'll add to my collection.

Morning's primary colours, in spite of the time of day they're on display, are some of the prettiest nature has to offer. If I have to see the world at this time of day, I'm always grateful when the show is as gentile this one. 

Primaries: Naples, Inthanthrene, Quinacridone Scarlet, are the stars in this sky.  I adore using primaries and these three are quite luscious for painting sky.  Why these three?  Because the Naples doesn't turn green when it gets close to Indanthrene.  Green sky is another indicator entirely.

The light was bright that morning. The sky hung overhead, mingling like a wet into wet watercolour of primary colours that would fade into a solitary shade of blue as soon as they dried. 

 Another day, another sky.
