This range is part of Mingus. Just south. You can see this from just about everywhere in town. I just love the crags and crevices. Are they crags in America? Or is that a British thing? OK, too many period pieces for me. OK, confession time. I painted this backwards. Traced it backwards on the paper. What? How? Ha ha ha! It was late, and I was NOT going to start over. Didn’t see it until the ink was dry.

I was in the mood for pen apparently. A style I would like to be better at. There are many styles I would like to be better at. Ha ha ha. Here is number four. And oh, yeah. More yellow flowers. I was trying to recreate flowers I did on this postcard. Well, trying to create them better. HA! That will teach me.

There are other subjects I would like to paint for #WorldWatercolorMonth. Maybe I will do flowers for a week, and then switch. Maybe.

Have an awesome 4th everyone!!!

Now why didn’t I catch that? I had three chances to spot it. Just noticing the horrible shadow along the left that shouts, “BAD SCAN”. Uugghhh, LOL. (fixed)

I painted the WWM piece first today. I mixed paint, and had enough left I decided to use it on the Mingus painting as well. I LOVE Naples yellow. Really dig it. I mixed it with Cerulean the other day, and was blessed with the prettiest, soft, warm green.

There are two different blues in the sky, and touches of Naples.

Ready, set, GO!

Here we are. The end of the challenge. And I have to say, February made it fly by. Tomorrow I will share all 30 paintings in a collage. I will share my favorites, and tell you which paintings were the most popular by page views.

See you then!
