Saturday Painting Palooza Vol.535

Hello again painting fans.

This week I will be continuing with the painting of the Grand Canyon. I am using the photo seen directly below. I'll be using my usual acrylic paints on an 10x10 inch canvas.

When last seen, the painting appeared as it does in the photo seen directly below.

Since that time I have continued to work on the painting.

I have continued to refine the various elements of the scene. Orange now dominates but that will change in a future cycle. Note that the tips of the two central peaks have been left in the earlier bright yellow and shadows have been added. All shadows are now a mottled deep blue. It's a big change but there is much left to do including that tree in the lower right.

The current and final state of the painting is seen in the photo directly below.

I'll have more to show you next week. See you then.
