THE PATH TAKEN


The Path Taken



15 x 22 inches
Fabriano Artistico 140# cold press paper



I think I'll go back in and scumble up the path a bit so it doesn't look so smooth.









I did make a few changes to the path.  Still could be better but...whatever.

COLD BLUES


The Cold Blue




11 x 15 inches, Fabriano Artistico 140# coldpress paper



Most of these are done very wet-in-wet without going back in to make changes or darken (although they do have a tendency to be very pale).  I liked this one the way it stood when dry because I added Cerulean Blue thick from the palette to make it colder.

Should have left the house out of this one and it would have been more dramatic, I think.  Oh, well, they all can't be winners.

CHANGING THE PALETTE COLORS


I didn't want to get into a rut of choosing the same palette colors for each painting so changed them out, intentionally going for others in my dozen or so choices.
