Misty Morning Reflections
The sky was overcast and the air was misty when I took a walk beside a nearby lake yesterday morning. My eye was drawn to the reflections of the bridge on the water. The whole scene looked like a tonal study in the hazy light conditions. It inspired my to try a value study in watercolor. I used the app NotanIzer to help be identify the value ranges but ultimately just used the photo as reference while painting. For colors, I used Sodalite Genuine, Payne's Grey and Moonglow. The exercise helped me to keep it as simple as possible...a good learning experience.
