Color is a powerful thing. It can make a painting look hyper-realistic, artificial or gaudy. On the other hand it can make a painting come alive.
Recently, I was doing work outside in southern Vermont when I experienced this late day sun which made this field come to life. I grabbed my camera and took a picture as this light was going to change rapidly.
I put many washes down on my painting as the color saturation was so rich to emulate.
The photograph does not do justice to the richness of color in the watercolor.
