ACEO - Dusk 8

After a week without high humidity, we are right back at it with a temperature of 81F (27C) and the humidity making it feel like 91F (33C). I wonder how long this heat wave will continue.

I decided that I would work on this little painting that I had started last year, (see posts on 09 March and 27 July 2017).

I put the pine trees onto the large island at the far side of the lake using French ultramarine blue and raw sienna.

I darkened the water with the tree colour to create movement on the surface of the lake.

The ACEO shown here is an original watercolour painting using Artist quality Winsor & Newton paint on 140lb. Fabriano 100% cotton, acid free watercolour paper. It is priced at $20.00 and sold unframed.
