Every year in the end of April and beginning of May the rape fields are in full bloom hereabouts and lucky me I have about 5 large fields in walking distance of my home. My first sight of the yellow fields today is the above impression close to Waldbuch. I came by here as I had to take a detour due to a fire incident and saw this yellow farmhouse and barn. The fields, partly yellow or green can be seen in the distance.
In the afternoon I made a walk with my sketchbook to another field, but this was a disaster, as the ants close to the field went into my trousers to bite...
you can imagine that I hurried and within 15 minutes I quit. The hectic can be seen in my - v e r y - fast direct watercolour sketch:
I enclose a colour card that I took with me to get the comparison on site on which yellow to use for the field.
The Cad-free Yellow Pale and the Cad-free Yellow seem to be good colours for it. More yellow fields are close and wait to be drawn, I will try different options.
Ich habe in der Nähe ca. 5 grosse Felder, die ich bequem zu Fuß besuchen und malen kann. Heute war meine erste Sichtung in der Nähe von Waldbuch. Ich musste einer Umleitung folgen, denn es hat im Ort gebrannt, also kam ich nach Waldbuch. Die gelbe Scheune, das Haus (auch in Gelb) und das Rapsfeld in der Ferne waren für mich ein perfektes Motiv.
Am Nachmittag machte ich mich mit meinem Skizzenbuch auf, um nochmal zu malen, aber das war nur ein kurzer Ausflug. Die Skizze dauerte maximal 15 Minuten, denn die Ameisen hatten Gefallen an mir gefunden und ich beendete hektisch meine direkte Aquarellskizze.
