Mingus number forty. This was difficult to scan, and the light blue in the sky is not true to life. Tempted to go back in and add a wash. If I do I will share it with you.

A sign of Spring, this yucca is getting ready to bloom.

      And that is one thing I so want to learn… stay loose and not fuss. Thanks Carol 🙂

    The starkness of the background mountain really enhances the foreground soft desert. I find the line work in pencil very intriguing in this composition. The idea of rendering the same subject for such a long period is quite challenging, yet I can see the benefit. It forces the artist to really look anew every day. It’s awesome, Sheila!

      Thank you for that Laurelle 🙂 I have been leaving the pencil on some, and on others I go over it with paint. I am almost to the halfway point. And I am not feeling bored or stagnant yet. I think the falling behind has something to do with that. And I have not explored as much as I would like. But that is due to factors out of my control. There is still time to experiment. 😉
