Orange Bright Blue and Green
How other artists use this palette...

Cape Cod Pier
William J. Glackens (1870-1938), American
Oil on canvas, 33" x 28" (w x h), 1908
NSU Art Museum, Fort Lauderdale, FL

Source Museum notes edited:
In 1908 Glackens turned away from his usual palette of dark, earth-tones and adopted the sun-drenched colorism of French art (Renoir and Matisse) and American artists, such as Maurice Prendergast. This painting's site is a pier that extended into Cape Cod Bay from a beach on the grounds of the famous Nobscussett Hotel in Dennis, MA
