10x14 watercolor on Stonehenge 140 lb hot press paper done at end of December, an imaginary snow covered stone bridge with its bare branches and brush poking through. The cold icy stream runs under it.

December Days
4.25x5.5 watercolor on Fluid 140 lb cold press paper done yesterday of an imaginary winter landscape complete with snow and overcast skies. I wanted to use color combinations never tried so for the sky burnt umber + phthalo blue were mixed and same colors throughout except for the buildings which was Indian red. That red stays on my palette but is not popular as it is opaque. I mixed a grey of what colors were in the mixing part of the palette for the frozen water. Distant hills were softened with a damp brush. I am trying to paint better landscapes along with portraits, two subjects that are not easy.
