Neighboring barn in Fall



15x11 watercolors

I finally got a barn I like. I had taken several pictures . The scene was complicated, but I worked it out in a drawing first. I just intuitively painted the colors without regard to the photo.Am pleased with results

  1. Thanks for visiting my blog too! I love the softness in these leaf paintings. It's funny, I was just out and grabbed a few leaves off a tree for inspiration. I think I'm going to try to do some sort of mixed media with them. I'm hoping if I glue them on and encase them in clear gloss medium they'll keep their color.

    Your intuitive palette certainly fits the season! It's lovely!
