The Setting Of The Sun - stage 1

After spending three weeks at least on the previous painting I fancy doing something different: soft, dreamy and quick. This has been blocked in with a rag using a mix of Burnt Umber, Dioxazine Purple and Alizarin Crimson thinned with turpentine. No reference was used and is very simple, just a woman walking towards us in a vaguely Tuscan landscape. I want the whole painting to be soft and mysterious and is really just about colour and atmosphere and is possibly one of a series. I won't be able to get on with this until Saturday as I have to be away for a few days.
