Chamber's Creek

8x10

Pastel on paper

 

I started this painting on location at Itasca State Park. It was late in the day and I wasn't sure if I wanted to start another painting, but I am glad did. Stepping over the creek bank and seeing the color of the grass was astonishing. Working the violets and golds in with the turquoise was exciting.

This turned out to be one of my favorites.
