Valley of Fire
sold. (8x8in.)
I'm going backwards here, returning to a painting a did when I was in Nevada last month. Or was it the month before? At any rate, this was from Valley of Fire, the only place I was able to paint during the entire month out (camping with my family). I re-worked it quite a bit once home. I was especially unhappy with the foreground. I'm finding that my flat brushes don't work well for foliage. So I got a long filbert and went to town with these little bushes.

This one is just beautiful!
Hi Carol - Lovely work - great brushwork and catching the light. I'm a watercolor artist and love your loose style. Non-artists have no idea how challenging it is to paint loosely. It takes great skill and power of observation to simplify. I'm still working at learning how to do this and I find your paintings to be instructive and inspirational. Thanks so much! All the best to you on your artist's journey.
Hi Carol its beautiful! and the brief writings make it interesting and inspiring. Best wishes
Beautifully painted!
I feel hot weather and fresh greens through your painting. It looks so natural.
