Sierra Sunset

While attending Elin Pendleton’s color workshop I completed a little study based of her method of expressing a colorful sunset. At the time I was pleased enough with it but I was also awash in Elin’s theories so I didn’t give this much additional thought.

After I returned home my wife decided that it was her favorite from the workshop but since it was only a 6x8 it was kinda small. So..... I decided to try scaling It up to a larger version.

The original was on a small (6x8) canvas panel. The larger version is on a 12x16 cradled board.
