Anatomy of a Painting - Western Landscape Painting by Colorado Artist Carol Hein




Last month I went to Santa Fe with my good friend Kim Conrad.  There was so much art, so many new ideas and methods - it was overwhelming.  I came home determined to try some new things and I thought you might enjoy the journey.  Here we go.  This may be a colossal failure but you don't grow by standing still.  What the heck, a canvass can always be painted over. 

After blocking in the major shapes with a large brush I am going to paint the picture with a credit card instead of brushes.

More progress to follow tomorrow.
