Graphite Sketch w/ Pastel

Watercolor Progression

Another watercolor demo completed.  As in this case, sometimes I just start out and don't know how it will really end.......I just paint.  Lately I've been painting a great deal of rocks and aspens..... trying to capture the rustic feeling of the mountain wilderness...  This painting is in my usual size range 9 1/2" x 13 1/2", and I think I'll mat it with a 3 1/4" off-white mat....giving me a frame size of 16" x 20"....
