Autumn colours, real and not so real


 These orange-yellow truck and chartreuse dumpsters were an irresistible subject, I had to stand in the shadow of a building on a bad-smelling street to get the scene. What was so interesting was the high-chroma orange-yellow and chartreuse colours of the artificial objects next to the olive green and natural yellow of the grass and tree. In the background is the 15 highway heading to Verdun. Its a ridiculous scene to paint but somehow its one of my favorites from today's efforts. The truck of course had a different name on it but I could not resist this time!
