Fall colors really push the range of one's palette. The high oranges and reds are in a range I don't paint everyday. Likewise, the deep, cool blue-greens I don't use often, too.
This picture reminds me of a walk through the woods in late October when the days have become short. I did this picture to escape from the poor air quality brought on from the Canadian fires and the high humidity of summer. There is a crispness in the watercolor washes that is descriptive of the cool and clear evenings of late fall.
I like it when the contours of the landscape reveal themselves, whether it is the outcroppings of rock or an undulating shoreline.
