Cobalt Lake-The Bugaboos-The Granite Boulder

"I begin with an idea and then it becomes something else". Pablo Picasso 

It's interesting how much time I have spent thinking about and looking at the Granite boulder. I have a piece of granite in my hand and feel its texture, its coolness, and if it's been in the sun....... its warmth.

Every painting is a journey, and all journeys come to an end. I feel this journey with Cobalt Lake is soon over. I brush in layers of Paynes Grey, and when half dry sprinkle in some Himalayan salt for texture. I work on the granite rocks to the left of the picture, and also dab in more layers of colour in the mossy grass.

CKUA radio is playing in the background.

Enjoy the journey.
