Your painting vs. photo comparison reminds me of my struggles to photograph it and makes me wish I'd taken some watercolors with me that day.<br /><br />Thank you for posting your paintings of the Rockies. I've really enjoyed seeing them through your eyes. I hope you and Jeanette have a good train and bus ride safely home!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14445308958139867946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-9722652546837880212013-10-19T03:41:37.359-04:002013-10-19T03:41:37.359-04:00James, there is a marked difference in saturation ...James, there is a marked difference in saturation between steps 3 and 4 - the underpainting is blue and orange, but the final colors are much more muted and natural.<br /><br />Is this due to the photo processing, or was it this way during the painting? Did you glaze, or overpaint, to bring the picture together?Eugene Arenhaushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12899356091394676298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-59171902611019347762013-10-18T22:29:19.986-04:002013-10-18T22:29:19.986-04:00James
