Please contact me if you are interested in this artwork.
This is another plein air watercolor study from Labor Day. I loved the way this old family farm nestled into the scraggley fields that had been harvested and cropped to the ground. It gave the scene some texture and interest.
I paint a lot of my watercolor studies on a plastic-like paper called Yupo. The surface allows the color to pool on top instead of sink in like most watercolor papers. It really forces me to use a quick, fresh approach because you can’t keep layering over the paint you’ve already put down. If you do, it tends to bring up the color you have already applied. The final artwork looks a bit more like an acrylic than traditional watercolor.
