Bucolic Landscape

6.25x14.75 acrylics on matboard done recently as a WetCanvas challenge.  For July, participants had to do the following:

1.  Work only in acrylic
2.  Use non-dominant hand
3.  Must be a bucolic landscape

Since I don't use that media much and detest landscapes, it sounded like a fun project to have ready by the 21st.  I'm ambidextrous so no problem there.  My photos were not too exciting, so this southwest scene is entirely imaginary and I used Derivan Matisse matte paint, Liquitex, and Basics brands of paint along with a 1" bristle flat brush done left-handed.
