Sometimes decisions aren't made for purely artistic reasons around here. Really. This morning, we needed more sand to make cement for a stone project we have going at the house. We get it by the pick up truck load in Livingston - which is at the northern end of Paradise Valley from us - in Park County.
Soooo....guess where I chose to paint this morning?? Yes! Paradise Valley or Livingston. But I got lucky. The sunrise was phenomenal. I won't give away which spot I chose to paint at (until this weekend) - but here are some of my choices I had this morning....
 |
| The AMAZING sunrise this morning. Look at that light on the clouds! |
 |
| Backlit trees - I like the shapes they create against the sky and distant mountains. |
 |
| Morning colors over the Yellowstone River. Good shape possibilities with the contrast of lights and darks. |
 |
| A calm horizontal scene with beautifully subtle colors and shapes. |
 |
| I know - but from a strictly shapes, lighting and colors perspective - this one looks fun. A very interesting composition. Great variety in the positive and negative shapes. |
 |
| Wonderful light, interesting colors and a good drawing challenge. A "Livingston" statement. |
