Cinnabar green light

I had a more relaxed day today, enjoying several coffees with my new friends. We were adopted by a sweet dog who followed us around from spot to spot and would lie at our feet while we were painting.
It was overcast most of the day, but in a way I enjoyed that as I didn't have to chase shadows around!
I once bought a tube of Williamsburg Cinnabar Green Light as much because I loved the name as anything!
I don't have much call for it but it came in perfectly for the lady's robe in the foreground, which was the last part I painted. The cherry on the top!

    It's a pretty amazing colour - and I can see why you love the name. :-)
    The light here looks fantastic: very clear. Thanks for sharing this.

    I'm enjoying your posts and work from Morocco Haidee-Jo. AND, you found the perfect use for Cinnabar green ;p

    Double, wow, I so love this one! It might just make it into my top three Haidee-Jo's of all time. Just beautiful. Who needs shadows when you can have this? And cinnabar green as well.
