All summer I have been flirting with the idea of painting bolder landscapes. The other night I quickly painted this panorama on a scrap of Arches watercolor paper that has been kicking around.
This watercolor is inspired from my recent trip to Maine. Great Head is one of my favorite hikes in Acadia National Park which is in Bar Harbor, Maine. My wife and I prefer this hike late in the afternoon when the glow on the rocks and vegetation is magical.
Painting the sky and water was truly an exciting moment for me. The paper was wet and the pigment was glistening on the surface. However, I wasn't so sure how the green in the foreground would turn out but am pleased with the result.
It seems like I learn something new each time I work with watercolor, whether it is the pigments, the paper or the impact a brush can make.
