Rheem Creek, Richmond
We ended up at the mouth of Rheem Creek just off Goodrick Avenue. The atmosphere changed dramatically, including about 3 rain showers. I had raindrops on my watercolor. I went over part of the painting to work on that and darken some parts. I almost quit, but then the sun came out again. There were some of these concrete foundations of something long gone. So I decided to try and paint one. I cropped off the top of the sky. The water kept changing too. There were light blue area dark brown, yellow brown when the sun hit. I just left it the way I had it to start. Although it isn't the way it really was. I was happy to get out and paint again after being sick for 2 weeks.

You managed to get the light just right on this building Larry! Glad you are feeling better!
ReplyDeleteA sensitively rendered and altogether peaceful painting, considering all you went through to make it. I'm glad I played hooky that day.
