Pastel 9x9
Plein Air
Painted at Jacksonville Arboretum last Friday. I added a few
touches this morning and signed it. This was an exercise of assembling widely
scattered elements from the vista into a small space.
Early in the painting process, I struggled with the values
and composition. Then as the shadows moved, I realized that a major feature of
the bank in the back ground had been there all along.
I need to remember to walk through the landscape as much as
possible so that I know the objects that are in shade and shadow.
