Tuesday was painting class with Enid Wood.
enidwood.com We were painting neutrals which for me is just a bit difficult. I think it is for Enid, too. She paints beautiful, colorful paintings. We had a good time and I like the painting I started.
This was the underpainting with a bit of pastel over the watercolor. You can see the drips in gray.
This is 9 x 12 on Colourfix sanded paper. The paper was a pale yellow and the sky is mostly the color of the paper with a bit of pastel added on. I started with a watercolor underpainting The dark is probably a bit too dark and I have toned that down a bit working on it today. You can see with that how neutral colors make the bright colors really pop and stand out. I will post the finish.
I tried out my new camera. It seems to work very well. These are mostly from our walk this morning.

For my art link, there is an Art Walk in New Braunfels this weekend with several of the Austin Pastel Society members involved. If you are down that way, it looks like fun:

Great start to your painting! I like it already. I haven't hit a lick all week - been running a fever and feeling lousy. It perks me up to see you painting.
Bag Blog, ah, well. Can't be productive when you don't feel well. This wind is a bit depressing. It's been cooler, but I still don't like the wind. At least we don't have as much dust here as in New Mexico and Lubbock. Ha.
Great photos. I think you did well on the new camera acquisition.
Thanks, Joanna. The camera is much easier to use as far as settings go. It is a bit larger, but does seem to really zoom well.
