Still having fun with the Mingus Mountains to the east. I have so many ideas, collage, layering, textures. But I need some wood panels. Think that would be better than paper or canvas. I wouldn’t have to be so delicate. Played with the shapes on this. I tilted the lines, and I like it. Lined with pencil.

Each time I look to the mountains they are new. Partly cloudy day makes for constant changes in the view. Today the field in front turned a perfect platinum blonde. (Photos taken on the 21st.)

Can’t wait to get home and LOOK AT ALL YOUR GREAT ART!

    Nice photos – what a beautiful part of the world you live in. Your watercolour is lovely too – very expressive shapes and great colour.
