Autumn Maples 1 and 2 - Two Works in Progress

I didn't have a lot of time to paint as I had a number of appointments to go to today.

However, I wanted to get something done today on a painting even if it was only putting in a sky.

I picked these two paintings as they are very similar having the same autumn theme with maples.

I started by wetting the top of the paper for the sky on both pieces and mixing French ultramarine blue and Antwerp blue.

I brushed in the sky on each painting, leaving some areas of white for the clouds.

Unfortunately, time waits for no one and I had to get my things together and leave.

I will post each of these paintings at a later date as more work on them is completed.
