STILL EXPLORING...

watercolors and mixed media. Trying to create a more harmonious palette/painting by limiting myself to three basic transparent pigments, using others for details. In this piece the foreground is a series of washes using a mixture of Aerulean yellow and rose madder. The darker grass was done with burnt sienna and the barn with cadmium red and the 3 main trees with acrylic titanium white.


the Plains... water media 8x10"

Here is this scene as painted several years ago in pastel.
