On the Horizon (Acrylic Watermedia) as of Jun. 3, 2018


Here is the painting I have been working on. This "Mountain Daydream" is an attempt to capture memories of the mountains on the horizon. When I was growing up in Pueblo, Colorado, a trip to the mountains was about 30 minutes away in any direction, and only an occasional excursion.  But those mountains were always visible on the horizon.  Today I lightened the sky a bit, added some red-violet wash to the brown foreground and to the foothills.  I also divided the foreground, trying to suggestion a view of the mountains from a higher vantage point.  To be continued. . . .
