This piece went to Kutztown PA for Salon of Small Works Invitational.  The colors are what have me asking questions here. I couldn't tell you why I chose this color palette.  Every section of the painting I picked colors separately without thinking of the rest of the painting or if it would work or not. The sky is copper.  The roof is silver. The driveway is silver on top of a greyish underpainting showing through. Surprisingly enough though it gives a certain mood that actually works.  The trim echoes the sky and grass, and the driveway echoes the house. At first I didn't like it but seeing it from distance changed my mind.
