A bit of yellow

By autumn, the yellow-saffron glow of summer days has a hint of nostalgia. I tried to get that feeling back through a series of small paintings. The style is, as usual, a mix: acrylic layers after layers, patina, and drawing pencil. Dried colors are duller than wet ones, so the finish consists of a thick layer of acrylic varnish. The subject is a pretext for color and amusing details: laundry left to dry in front of a wall, including towels, shirts, and underwear.
