Dove Mountain Desert


Oil
8 x 8

Another day, another hike and another desert painting!  This time using a different canvas and underpainting.  This painting is on a Raymar panel with an orange underpainting.  The result is much different from the smooth, white gessobord.  Colors and brush strokes both are more muted.
