Hudson River

(CLICK ON TO ENLARGE)
Here is a photo I stitched together of the Hudson River. The Hudson is like me, it has many moods. Photos for me are nothing more than records and references. I use them for higher purposes in my work. They are useful.

NOTES ON BLUE:

LOW ON THE HORIZON IS MY FAVORITE COLOR----IT IS CERULEAN BLUE.

HIGHER UP YOU FADE INTO COBALT BLUE.

THE HOLY TRINITY OF BLUES ARE CERULEAN, COBALT AND ULTRAMARINE! (WHICH VERMEER FAVORED SO MUCH AND IT WAS VERY EXPENSIVE IN THOSE DAYS)
