Marinette County acrylics 8/11/13

This is my favorite place to visit.

I painted two pictures, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. I used ultramarine blue, titanium white, hansa yellow light and alizarin.

I need better shade to take these pictures. Having a gloss problem.

Roger's Garden 7/30/13

Al and Cathy were unable to come so we went to Roger's Garden to paint. It was overcast but then decided to rain softly so we moved into the garage to continue painting. It took forever for the paint to dry. Roger got out his blower to dry his watercolor

I used Quin Mag, hansa yel lt, ultramarin blue and white in the first picture. The second picture, I added Pyrrole red because I needed that orangey red shade.
