argolid, 38x36” as it looked ar rge end of my painting day today
2:09 PM: just wrapping up for the day after doing additional work on argolid, which is currently a creek-scape.
i kinda like the big tree trunk on the right of the composiotion, which has the markings of the bark without the color of the tree trunk itself. as i often mention, this is something that subtly takes it a step away from description and closer to meaningful patterning. i shoul say playful patterning.
that orange tinted rock has an even more pronounced color in reality, and the white-ish one is even whiter
this detail shows a few of the blues i put in on my second round of work this afternoon.
12:37 PM: after whiting over argolid 2 days ago and enjoying the sublties of what remained on the surface, i felt the urge to use a couple of my hundreds of creek photos and see what i do.
thus far, i’m having a very good time. although we haven’t been on the trail we walked when i shot these for maybe 3-4 years, i remember every detail. you might say i have a photographic memory for rocks, branches & water. but defintely not numbers!
