Saturday Painting Palooza Vol.633

Hello again painting fans.

This week I will be continuing with the El Morro National Monument painting. I'll be using my usual acrylic paints on a 6x6 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 decided to handle this painting from the top down. As such, I've concentrated on the sky and butte. The sky has been largely completed. Note the fluffy clouds to the far right. I may make minor revisions as things progress. As to the butte, I've divided it in shadowed and lit sections. The details will be seen in next week's cycle. There is much left to do but it's a good start.

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

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