Havasu



This is the painting that I painted in Havasu- the desert always kicks me in the rear when painting- and it was difficult - I just am not used to the airy bushes that have very little form and the intense color of the sunsets. Well, I gave it my best shot and I know that I will have to work harder on this type of scene- I definitely have a lot of respect for desert painters such as Matt Smith( his workshop was a major eye opener) and Becky Joy- she's been painting a lot of nice desert scenes lately.

Thank you for your comment- keep checking back - the weather will be warming up enough for more outside painting.
