Day 17 - "30 Paintings in 30 Days"

"Cloud Study II", pastel, 6x6, $195 framed in gold frame


As referred to in yesterday's blog, this is the second cloud study for  the larger studio painting that I started today. I like the cloud shadows on the land and the diagonals of the hills that make a Z shape composition. This study has more saturated color in the land masses and less drama in the sky.
I am going to take what I learned about painting these clouds along with the composition of the plein air study to assist in the larger painting. I will post the larger painting when finished!

Thanks for viewing my artwork!
