In the Distance

5x9 watercolor using White Nights paints on Canson 140 lb cold press paper done weekend before last while on a short trip to the mountains. Practicing imaginary landscape scenes such as this small one is done with no pencil drawing beforehand, just brush only. COPYRIGHT 2023 Kay Smith

Backcountry Barn

12x9 watercolor on Fluid 140 lb cold press paper, an imaginary country scene of a rundown old barn. The rocky landscape foreground was fun to paint wet in wet in layers as was the middle ground. The fence is still up so suppose someone is running cattle. Storm clouds are building up overhead. When dry, splattering was done for textural effects. COPYRIGHT 2020 Kay Smith.
