Joy in Painting

       

The summer of color continues.  I'm really enjoying the process of painting, especially the first washes where the colors mingle on the page instead of being mixed on the palette. 

        Compositional notes:  Take care when composing roads or paths.  Try to avoid having leading lines go exactly to the corner of the page.  Use gradation of values to keep eye away from corners.  Use objects that protrude (like the sailboat) to break up lines.
