It always feels good to paint on Arches watercolor paper. The pigment moves around well and the bead of the paper is familiar. Also, I find the back of the sheet is just as good to paint on as the front. If something goes awry there is no worry, nor waste.
Earlier in the winter when we had no snow or very little on the ground, the West River Trail was a great place to paint or exercise along. Also, the warmth of the sun was so inviting.
It can be a challenge to paint linear or paved surfaces as they can divide the composition in half but I like the feel of this path. For me, part of the appeal, is that the trail is off-center with an irregular edge.
