I'm so happy that I finished this in time :) I love landscapes! Done with Caran'd Ache Studio gouache and flat 3/4" brush.

Hi, These are my first attempts, I read that we coud enter more than once, if that is not so, please use my entry below. Using my own Photography, Geneva Lake, weather has limited onsite painting. I used M Graham Gouache on bristol board 2x2. Enjoyed the challenge and seeing everyones entries and how they work. Thank You again.

Beautiful! Great job working with so much white snow. You captured the many colors that actually exist!

Hi, I used my own photography taken at Geneva Lake, the weather has been in the lower teens and dipping below zero making it unsutable for painting out. I loved the challenge of painting from photos and small. I used M Graham Gouache on cur Bristol board. Thank You for the challenge. Thinking that this might be perfect for a morning exercise.

My first 4 thumbnails in gouache. This was my first time using this medium. I did 2 images from the same reference photo because I was struggling.

good job, gouache can be really tricky, getting the right amount of water and pigment is always a challenge for everyone. Keep going...

I would love any feedback on this, I’m trying to simplify this image in my mind for this challenge. I keep wanting to add the rocks in on the left, but I don’t know if they help or hurt. I’m leaning toward getting rid of them in keeping with the simplification part of this challenge.
Mary Beth Bellon
Nice perspective, and nice light flow.

These are some sketches and value rendering before I paint them. I mainly work traditionally so I'll be painting these in gouache.
Mary Beth Bellon
Interesting, good idea keeping it in perspective.
