December Road - WIP


Above image is correct - looking west




This image is reversed - "looking east"

Just to make sure I am getting the design, shadows, values, contrasts, and feel the way I want it, I took a picture and flipped in Photoshop. Here are the results side by side. Instead of looking west the flip is looking east, if that makes any sense at all.
I have been taking extra time with this piece because of its emotional significance. I had taken my dad for a ride in the country near Harlan, and we stopped here to spend a few minutes reminiscing.
