Scout Lake 7x10 derwent inktense watercolor pencil 4/23/21

 






Final version with color swatches










Still working out the shapes. Rocks on left caught my eyes and became too large









Plein air version with limited pencil selection. They were too bright. Plus I was distracted by the tree reflections. A friend lent me some grays to help tone it down. When I got home I worked on and ruined the plein air painting. Then I decided to test the Derwent inktense grays and decided on Charcoal, a greenish gray, and Paynes, a purplish, bluish, gray.
