I'm trying to work with some of Olly's techniques for the trees. Also, as discussed in previous posts, working on how to indicate a thin fishing line in the air. In this case I tried to paint around the line and then added guache to make it more visible. It is not as successful as the scrathing out used in some of the other images.
This painting is of a new pool that was created by the installation of a massive rip rap bank which gives the opportunity to explore painting tightly intermeshed boulders as well as the trees behind and water and near bank. I'm happy with a lot of this, I think, but the line is really clunky and takes away from the rest.
