Last week I painted a watercolor on the cliffs south of Soberanes, (Garrapata State Park). My painting went well, and for 2 1/2 hours I was lost in myself, the painting and the water on rock. I don't like the stairs, walkways, stone viewpoints etc. the State has added. Leave it natural!!!!!! Anyway, I took my plein air painting home- it had potential, until I added too may darks, (trying to get more contrast) and soon I had mud color. I will use my inspiration on the cliffs and paint a studio version. I am very low on paintings due to the success of the last several months, but I can't rush things and there are many rejects. Here is the scene.
