Broadmoor Flooded

November 6, 2009 by Laraine Armenti, visual artist

Fall weather is making outdoor painting remarkably comfortable, without bugs, sunburn, nor freezing cold. The tributary through Broadmoor flooded, eliminating edges that formerly defined a receding channel. I’m feeling progress in scaling relative masses to create a sense of depth, keeping color clean with contrast, and having a better handle on the drawing/composition as I gain experience working outside. I’ve reduced the palette to red, yellow, blue and white for a lighter pack.

ABOVE: Broadmoor Flooded, oil on paper, 8.25 x 10 in. (21 x 25 cm), 10/31/09
