Acadia National Park is one of the most incredible parks – wild, rugged, beautiful.
Another painting with watercolor on Vision paper; again more direct approach. Not sure how good this looks online as the scan was not especially good.
This was a challenge altogether. Goal was simply to simplify. The rocks were not so easy to do as they are complicated in a lot of ways, at least here. They are very rectangular and sharp. I used broad strokes – and then some more – and then some more, each getting smaller. The trees, foreground, lighting were difficult as it was sunset or sunrise and catching the colors felt elusive. It feels overworked to me, but this is practice with both the paper and subject.
Vision watercolor paper, 140# CP, watercolor, 9 x 12.
