re-work of a watercolor/collage / drive home from salida / by Philip Tarlow

6:07 PM: i had my foot appointment (capsulitis was diagnosed as causing the severe pain when i walk), we did some food shopping, got our flu shots and drove home. as we came over poncha pass and entered the san luis valley, we witnessed this breathtakingly magnificent sunset.

11:48 AM: it was snowing as i entered the studio this morning. we’re driving to salida soon, so this will be brief. i didn’t have the time to start something new, so i did some work on a previous water/collage, done in the past few months. i allowed my shifting aesthetic, based upon what i’ve learned over the past few weeks, to simplify and accent this one, which i believe has become a lot more interesting. even beautiful!.
