DOING MY BEST TO...

loosen up! Leaving behind the urban streetscapes, I've turned to these rural landscapes using a limited palette and working wet in wet. My hope is that I will eventually be able to take a similar approach with architectural and urban scenes.


East of Paducah wc 5x8

This painting was done with varying mixtures of Cobalt blue, Raw Sienna, and Alizarin Crimson. At the very end a small amount of Cadmium Yellow was touched to the edge of the horizon.


Summer Day wc 4x6

Viridian Green, Ultramarine Blue, and Raw Sienna were the only colors used in Summer Day.
