4"X 8" in watercolor sketch journal
After doing the DSFDF Pennsylvania landscape challenge from Bali, I thought I should paint a local landscape before we leave next week for the USA. This was from a ride through the rice paddies on the way to Tulamben in East Bali.
I decided to try Karin Jurick's Different Strokes for Different Folks challenge for the second time. This one was hard, well they all are for me, because she posted a black and white image and we had to make up the color. I got all screwed up on the proportions (silos to hills in background) and lost track of the layers going back in the distance. I also reduced the amount of the sky from the original photograph because I wasn't ready to tackle that, but I did try wetting the paper for the first time to create a subtle sky tone after consulting a few books I brought with me. On top of all this I am in Bali painting Pennsylvania. How weird is that!?!
