I do have to say, that it was kind of nice having the broadcasting day end at a certain time. The world was quiet just for a few hours.
This piece is 10x10 oil on linen. I used Prussian blue, raw umber, yellow ochre and a little bit of cadmium red. My black was Mars Black and the white was Titanium.
I also used a very light yellow from Vasari Paints for the highlights. I love their paints it is just so loaded with pigment !
The ground was an oil primer and I put a transparent wash of ochre and black over that. I roughed in the composition with raw umber and started painting when that dried.

That's a cool painting! I really like the colors you used, and love the composition.
Thanks Leslie!
Very cool vintage tv.
National Anthem at 12? No 'Late Night with Jimmy Fallon'?! I remember when I had to get up to turn down the volume. I don't miss that.
Just the perfect combination of elements...palette, subject, composition, bleak, and foreboding for a satisfying piece. Simple and very effective. I'm intrigued by the colors that you used. It is delightful to see this one.
