Colorado Front Range in Autumn (Painting as of Dec 19, 2024)



On December 19, I continued working on this painting.  I toned down the yellow, going over it with a kind of golden apricot color that let some of that yellow show through.  I used a soft purple to paint in some mountains, and used a similar color for the road.  I put down a coat of pale blue for the sky, with some peach-colored clouds.  And of course, added red to the sun.  Although the brown areas look pretty rough, I left them alone for now because the color wasn't too far off. At this point, there was a lot to fix, but the color scheme was closer to what I wanted.  To be continued. . . .
