Painting in Black Star Canyon

This painting trip took place earlier this week on TuesdayI wanted to beat the heat so I did not leave the house until about 3:30 pm.  I was on site and set up by 4:15 pm.

The surface I was working on was one of my acrylic, pumice, and masonite panels that I have been making for the last couple of weeks.  I really like how durable and steady they are.  The one pictured above measures 22"X48".  The backlit walls of the canyon were very warm and subtle in their range of color.
