Drumright - stages 1 and 2

Apologies for a lack of posts recently but have not been able to work due to a health problem. Drumright is a small town in Oklahoma and I was drawn to this scene by the funky trailer in the foreground that was for sale set against the red brick buildings in the background. I resolved to try out another painting based on two unequally sized blocks of colour, in this case orange and blue. The first stage was "drawn" up with a thin bristle brush using my usual mix of Burnt Sienna and Winsor Violet thinned with Liquin. On the next morning I gave it a wash of Permanent Orange thinned with Lukas Number 5 Medium and turpentine so that it was dry enough for an initial colour block-in on the afternoon.
