Waldo Canyon Wildfire (Acrylic Watermedia) as of December 30, 2020



Here's my latest painting as it looked a few days ago, on December 30.  The painting is of the Waldo Canyon Wildfire, which burned near Colorado Springs back in 2012.  Four years later, the burned out forest was still visible when I took a picture during a visit to Colorado in 2016. I recently turned that photo into a painting reference (posted here December 22), adding the colors of fire and smoke with digital pastel with my Painter program. At this point, I was struggling with the shapes in the foreground, and adding some shapes to the more distant mountains.
