Is upon the landscape, but sadly not upon my brushes. I seem to be going off on a tangent, which is quite normal and something I always encourage. The sky has been lifted up several notches on the tonal range. The dark grey/purples have been replaced by warmer purples and ditto for the dark bands of blue. The overall effect is quite pleasing and whether there is any similarity to a Titian sky is debatable. I had to get out a very rarely used tube of Manganese Blue for the occasion, Ultramarine Blue being my default choice. I will not change the title, as I am not a million miles away from the original. The brilliance of the sky is close to the horizon and this has not been painted yet.
A Titian sky, Eglingham. Day 2
