Congratulations!
The purpose of the limited palette challenge was to create a painting using only
blue and orange and any mixtures with those two colors. White was also
allowed to be used. 

Artists proved you can paint anything with two colors from still life to protraits to landscapes.  Among the many fine entries, voters selected Lake Mist Rising by forum member Eiren.  Eiren will recieve a $50 North Light Books gift certificate.
