More Paint Pushing.

So we're wrapping up with color and landscape painting. Our assignment was to paint a landscape at three different times during the day....one in the morning, one in the afternoon, and one late afternoon. At first, it was kinda hard because of the weather, but once I got out there, I enjoyed it. It's pretty interesting to see the dramatic shifts in color. Part of it had to do with the weather....one day it was overcast, another day was perfectly clear. But I really enjoyed doing these a lot. And I'm pretty satisfied with the results. Anyways, these are from Lake Cunningham Park, which was right down the street from where I live. Enjoy.

Morning-around 9am


Afternoon-between 11am-12:30pm


Late afternoon- around 4pm. This one actually was the most interesting because I got out there kinda late...and with daylight savings, the sun starts to set around 5ish. So while I was painting, the light was changing pretty fast, and I actually noticed the color change in the mountains. At first they were this desaturated yellowish (as pictured below), then they changed to a reddish brown, then changed again to a blueish! I was totally amazed.
