Mt. Assiniboine/Cascade Mountain-Early Morning-Canadian Rockies

I'm always on the edge before I add paint to a canvas. I look at the canvas, think about the direction I want to go and the process…..then I dive in;)

I always use Winsor & Newton paints, and in a small cup mix Winsor Blue (green shade) with Cobalt blue, then throw in a touch of Alazarin crimson for some early morning colour. Once the sky is completed you have to work on the light…where is the sun rising, what direction is the light coming from, how does it hit the peaks, what are the colours/shades, where are the shadows….I love it!
