Colorado Memories (As of August 25, 2016)


This is the painting I started yesterday, a small landscape. This is one of my "Mountain Daydreams," painted from my imagination but inspired by memories of the mountains in Colorado, my home state.  This little painting is 9" x 12", done with acrylics with water on watercolor paper.  Today I worked on the sky, adding a couple of layers of blue to suggest clouds.  Then I put some brown and taupe washes on the mountain, to suggest depth.  Tomorrow I am thinking about following up with a wash in the original ruby color.
