Flatirons in Winter (Painting as of December 28, 2021)



Here is my painting of the Flatirons in winter as it looked on December 28th.  My reference* is a digitally modified version of a photo that I took in Boulder during a visit to my home state back in 1974.  This is pasted paper and acrylic paint. On the 28th, I painted into the clouds, defined the preceding day with pasted tissue paper.  I also used the dark green paint from the mountains to paint into the outcroppings, also defined with pasted paper the day before.  Then I worked on the foreground, using white pasted paper and phalo blue paint to redefine the shapes.  To be continued. . .
