For some time I have been eager to paint a series of full sheet(22" x 30") watercolors. Now to be clear I have painted this size before. However, I am after fluid watercolors with relatively simple subject matter. That requires painting with a larger palette, bigger pools of pigment and a large brush.
This watercolor is closer to that size. This picture is 14" x 20". I like the start of this landscape. It has bolder brush strokes yet has a simplicity to it.
The elements of the Maine landscape are so universal that they pretty much speak for themselves. Evergreens, coastal water and rock outcroppings define the sense of place like few other landscapes I have experienced.
