Rock Study, Elesmere Canyon

Went out with my painting pals to Elesmere Canyon to paint for a few hours on Friday. We went later in the day so we could work on capturing the late in the day lighting.
I focused in on a grouping of rocks on the mountain.

Need a lot more practice as it is quite a challenge to simplify all the details of the formations.

I scrambled around a bit but finally found my way. Glad my friend Ernie gave me a thumbs up, as it did give me some much needed encouragement. This painting was almost scrapped, but I did not give up on it.
