He does not use all those colors in this painting, here's the actual list:

Alizarin Crimson
Van Dyke Brown -very little
Prussian Blue
Yellow Ochre-very little
Indian Yellow-very little
Bright Red-very little
Titanium White
Burnt Umber-very little

Hello thank you for adding this note. I agree with you. I would like to add that the warmth of the sun should reflect in the snow and on highlight of trees. I would add a tiny bit of that yellow into the titanium white to warm up the trees and snow closer to the sun and less and less as your getting away from it. With my artist eye there is a color harmony that is missing. I will try this painting and post it when I'm done. I always loved this painting.
