Clouds Over Black Gold

click to enlarge
This painting is done on Wallis sanded paper (Belgium Mist) with a water color underpainting and finished off with soft pastels.  This painting was done from a reference photo taken less than a mile from my house.  The foreground is a local golf course called Black Gold. http://blackgoldgolf.com/  The painting measures 26"x34".  I like the range of values in this painting and in particular I like that it is not too dark.  I am currently working to make my paintings more representational of the values as I encounter them.  My wife is constantly telling me my paintings are too dark.
