An extra imagined landscape

An extra imagined landscape

This bonus may give you an insight into why my finished painting in the Indigo course ended up with a dominant cloud. This is my studio view which has me feeling very much a part of the landscape and the sky in particular.






It also is good example of one of my re-imagined landscapes that seemingly appear naturally out of the process and my previous observations and studies. The indigo pastel goes in first to create the dominant shape and then the other materials are layered in and over and I simply respond to the process as I go along.



The radio was on - don't tell - I love Guy Garvey  :)
