Hi Fay, If it is cool light (which you have here), the shadows would normally be warm in relation to the cool light.  On a sunny day where the light is warm, the shadows are usually cool in relation to the warm light.  Now, you will find that a dark shadow ..say under a rock ..that is not influenced by any light ..will be warm ..no matter what.  Overcast days are USUALLY cool light.  North light is cool light.

Thank you Cristina and Michael.  I really appreciate your feedback Michael - is the rule for warm shadows on a cool day and cool shadows on a warm day?

Beautiful grays Fay.  I see you have chosen to make this a more cloudy day with diffused light?  Remember, in this situation where you have cool light, your shadows would be warm.

It is a nice and warm feeling attached to it. Your brush strokes are really remarkable. I do admire you for it.

Thank you Laura, Saghi and Ann - painting loosely doesn't come naturally to me I'm afraid so I feel a bit out of my comfort zone but I'm so enjoying Richard's lessons.
