Flatirons at Dawn (Painting as of March 16, 2020)


I continued work on this painting today.  This is an attempt to paint a memory from my years living in Boulder, Colorado: the Flatirons turning pink at sunrise. Today, after looking at my photo reference (posted here  March 7) as well as other photos of the Flatirons, I decided to adjust the size, positions, and form of the big rock outcroppings.  You see the revised shapes here, but not the final color.  I stopped at that point to give myself a chance to look at this change and decide if I am happy with it before continuing.  After looking at this for a while, I think this change was an improvement and helps with the perspective.  To be continued.
