| 11"x14" pastel of Jeckell Island Marsh.. The photo color is more saturated than the actual painting. |
Last November I visited Jeckell Island. I was very impressed with all the beautiful colors in the marsh.
 |
| Reference photo used to create the painting. |
 |
| The pastel work area was set up so I could see both a value and a colored rendition of the reference. |
I printed out the reference photo in color black and white to give me a understanding of the values in the scene. I also displayed the photo on a monitor next to my easel. , then made a little test sheet of the colors/values I wanted to use. Using my newly sorted values made painting the scene a snap.
