After working with canvas and watercolor on the last project I felt it would be interesting to do another work with it. The Sand Dunes down by Alamosa is the focus of this study. I thought the isolated feeling of the Sand Dunes would make a good muted color painting series. The fun thing about this medium on the canvas is it gives almost a printmaking feeling which I love.. almost a ink straight on fabric feeling too. The low clouds added some drama to what would otherwise be a boring image.
