Etude 1 - Studies in Basics



Etude 1A - Gray

Etude 1B - Pink

Etude 1C - Blue

Etude 1D - Gray Green



This is a series of 6x6 pastel studies - Etudes - in the same composition with variations of color and value.  I have tried to remain representational but limit detail in favor of abstraction and color.  I chose a simple view of the wide coastal marsh with the only variation in the flat horizon in a stand of distant trees.

2018 06 23 - reworked Pink and reposted.

These paintings are available thru my Gallery on Daily Paintworks.
