Waldo Canyon Wildfire (Acrylic Watermedia) as of January 1, 2021



This is my painting of the Waldo Canyon Wildfire, as it looked on New Years Day.  At that point, I was feeling the pressure of time, knowing that the painting had to be delivered by January 3rd. I took a hard look at my painting reference (posted here December 22). I turned it upside down. I turned the painting upside down and worked on it.  I turned everything right-side up. I worked on the issue with the foreground shapes. Then I worked on the shapes in the sky. I added some blue tones to the mountain in the far distance.  It finally felt like I was getting somewhere. About time, too.
