Pastel Colours 1 and 2

Today I was at KAGS in the afternoon drawing with the Outdoor Painters' Group.

I wanted to do a couple of small paintings with pastel colours in the sky.

On the first one I thought the sky should peek through the trees as an early morning scene.

I started with putting tall trees on each side of the paper, some slightly smaller trees were put in the background and tall weeds and growies in the foreground.

On the second one I wanted to have a large area of sky showing and framed by trees on each side of the painting.

Rather than having pines and cedars in this painting I wanted to have birch and maple trees, with an occasional coniferous tree.

It also needed tall grass and growies in the foreground.
