watercolors 67 and 68, 10x13" / by Philip Tarlow

2:33 PM: we had a great walk up the trail yesterday. i shot 6 photos, some of which will inspire new watercolors. these are the first two: watercolor 67, BELOW LEFT and watercolor 68.

newly sprouted leaves are part of the composition, casting shadows on the rocks below. tomorrow i may simplify this same composition, allowing more white space to dominate .
