Corner of Cliff Street and Rte 100. Direct Watercolor. 20"x16", 140lb Arches Rough.

Starting to actually like the daunting-ness of going direct with a large format. Sometimes what comes out doesn't seem totally like my "style" - such as this - but I made it so it's in there somewhere. Fun to explore.

Watercolor painting of a large grouping of apartments where Cliff Street and Route 100 meet in Stowe, Vermont. The large white clapboard buildings are dappled in purple shadows of Autumn from the surrounding trees and telephone poles, though only a single telephone pole is seen in the foreground before the buildings. The telephone pole is to the right and has two orange traffic signs on its lower half; the upper sigh shows the motif of a fire engine, while the lower sign has indescript lettering. In the middle, lower half of the scene are parking spots and a car seen from the back. The apartment buildings have various windows in, with the building in the back having the most uniform collection.

Time for #
#! I named my monstrous new friend a Houdozzitephen.

It turns out that I wasn't quite finished with my Happy Goat.

Using the wet-on-wet watercolour base, I added more depth, then gouache paints for more definition on the body. Plus details with a white Gelly Roll pen.

I was pleased to find out that my old gouache paints still work, though they're thicker than I remember.
