This is a scene I’ve always enjoyed with these 2 old red barns surrounded by the green fields and hills on the road to Millarville. I started this image as a regular triad with Cad Yellow Light, Thalo Blue and Permanent Green Light but all these colours end up mixing to  green which is a technical challenge to make into a successful painting.  It was also impossible to get a red barn out of this.  Something was needed to break up all this green so I added Cad Red Light as a fourth colour.  That made this a little more of a real world exercise.  My colour hero, Stephen Quiller, mentioned in one of his books that I was reading recently that analagous  colour schemes are beautiful, definitely harmonious but ultimately they are limited.  They are great to learn colour theory but when we master colour we move beyond these narrow restrictions and just paint.
