Farewell

My current image host, the 3rd that I've had, is closing. This will be the last post here. Not many, if any, folks will read this but it has been quite a run. Thanks.

Saturday Painting Palooza Vol.729

Hello again painting fans.

This week I will be continuing with the painting of the Grand Canyon. The photo that I'm using is seen directly below.

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 struggled with the large butte and went through 6 or so revisions. I settled on this final version somewhat satisfied. The brushstrokes mirror those seen on the mid distance buttes. Finally, the far rear has been revised with just the suggestion of additional rocky geography.

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

I'll have a new painting to show you next week. See you then.

Earlier paintings in this series can be seen here.
