| I used burnt umber and ultramarine blue here and snuck in a teeny bit of burnt sienna when no one was looking. |

The painting is wonderful, and the special tonality from the two colors makes it really glow as a unified scene in nature. When I was reading your post, the painting was hidden below the edge of the window, and I had to scroll down. So I didn't see it as I was reading the text. When I read that you could only use 2 colors I was expecting a very different type of painting than what I saw when I scrolled down to it! WOW! I might try a modified technique with my colored pencils. Just using the range of values in only two different hues. I like the effect you achieved!
Naughty you! So 3 colour painting really. Good idea and good painting too
