Layers of Green (Painting as of February 10, 2020)


I worked on this painting again today.  This image began with a vacation photo taken decades ago in Colorado; I cropped a bit out of the background to use as a painting reference (posted here January 15). Today I added a translucent layer of white to the sky to bring the color and value down.  Then I added layers of green to the two mountain slopes in the foreground.  I am trying to create a progression of greens, from yellow-green and dark to blue-green and light. At this point, I think the painting  just needs a bit of "detailing" so I hope to finish tomorrow or perhaps the day after that.
