I was captivated with the snow patterns on Mt. Rundle and this was the only vantage I could see them from, so I had to work with it. The middle ground trees were blocked in with transparent oxide red and it was my intention to cover them with a blued green, but in the end I really liked how the warm played off of the cooler violet mountain, so I left them as they were. I also felt this helped get the eye past the weight of the large, dark foreground trees, but mostly I just thought it was fun!

Sometimes time of day will dictate choice of subject, and in this case I chose the scene because I knew the light would linger on the high peaks long after it left the valley bottom where I was painting.
Today was also prime wildlife viewing! Both of the shots below were taken just before I started the first painting. If only they would hold still for an hour or so!
Exquisite scenery, we Texans envy your surroundings!
ReplyDeleteYou've done it again, and as I said to myself "I want that one!" I noticed the lack of a click to bid link. Good for you, keeping some for future reference. They are both beautiful, but Rundle Patterns is really fabulous.
ReplyDeleteLiz, you've got the best critters of anyone I know.
your work is so amazing and you live in one of the most beautiful places on earth...I know, because I've been there.
