Added detail to the foreground and reworked the upper left in an effort to add perspective. Worked about 10 minutes on upper left again and added a few sawgrass blades in foreground. Color is a little darker and more intense than actuality

I reduced the dark value of the top center cloud. Then decided working the saw grass could help determine how to approach the clouds. If I increase the detail in the foreground that could help with depth and perspective in the sky. I layed in a layer of veridian and the scored through it. Next session I will add line with paint.

This was a very short session in which I softened the transition between the cloud forms.

Again, worked exclusively on reducing the linear quality of the sky. Also, the color here shows more blue than the actual painting.

I think I'm channeling Thomas Hart Benton.

Started a canvas from photographs I took of Snake River in the Everglades. The expanse, flatness and sky offer much to consider.
