Overcast, Late November

Back Fields

I walked to the very back of a bean field and sat on a ridge....it's often more interesting to get off the roads and see how the land is laid out.

November Sky

Acrylic collage with acrylic brush work in the final stages. I kept the brush work to a minimum....I sometimes like to do that, just to see how little I can add. I left more of the sky yellow than was there, but there was something of the mood that remained. November can seem like a harsh, dangerous month here, but even though there have been some quite cold days, it hasn't felt very extreme yet. I think I may have tempered the effect here a bit, though....

November Dusk

....collage from acrylic painted papers at the beginning......acrylic paint over that.

Re-grade

....a sizeable hill was leveled to regrade a T-junction.

Cedar at Dusk

....the edge of a big cedar at the start of dusk.....I'm wandering up my usual path.

I scribbled the little diagram never really intending to use it....I thought the composition too odd....I decided to put the colours together last night just to see if I could get a hint of the mood.
