Tokyo, Imperial palace before the rain. Quick study

Haven't been painting in a long time….probably this was my longest break ever since I started painting almost 4 years ago.
Glad I picked up my brushes again …need to go back into the habit.
Today I worked mainly with the palette knife though! But you got the point :)

Few weeks ago I drew a sketch I really liked

 (http://lauradallagata.blogspot.com/2014/06/tokyo-imperial-palace-sketch.html ) thinking  it would also do a good painting, here is the quick study of today: 

11x14 inches
