more Colors! DS painting

Almost forgot about these. Done around the same time as the earlier bunch. Thanks again Josh for letting me borrow it. I need to get my hands on one.



Done while waiting for the bus after work one evening. I love the green yellow transition between the brilliant orange glow and the muted turquoise of the sky. It was so faint, but definitely there. What a wonderful effect of light in nature. I would never have thought to put that in there, that's why it pays to paint from life, even if it's on a DS, it's about the observation.



Two studies of the same spot on two different days and times. This was great fun. This is a view of the bay in San Rafael from the comfort of a boardroom at work.
