Snowdon Bakery Fall

Snowdon bakery is located down on Harley street where I have often made paintings for example the red bike in the snow. Today at lunch I went down to pick up some bread and made a quick painting of the fall colours in the trees which contrasted nicely against the warm beige bricks of the bakery. Like a croissant colour! In fact, the brick pigment was probably the same as my paint pigment, raw sienna (PBr7). The trees were various hues of yellow, brown and maroon. I also used a lot of yellow ochre in the grey mixes and sky, to give the whole painting a warm yellow fall glow.
