Foggy Dunes


Foggy Dunes, 7 x 5, SOLD

This is my third study in finding color-based neutrals. For this piece I used combinations of indigo and yellow plus white to establish a range of foggy grays. This excercise was really helpful before embarking on some larger fog and mist paintings! Can we ever experiment enough?

Personal side note: I am now off at a four day workshop with some incredible painters in Colorado Springs! Kevin Macpherson, Scott Christensen, Skip Whitcomb... I am pinching myself. It's like being at the most fun camp. I always loved camp. :)

  3. Hi Laurel,

    No. We can never experiment enough, and on the other hand we're always experimenting at exactly the right time and amount for ourselves.

    Beautiful, beautiful.

    XOXOXOBarbara
