Valley Vertigo Watercolor of Carmel Valley


Valley Vertigo 21 x 14
This is a half sheet I started in Carmel Valley way back in May after the Carmel Art Festival. It was painted near the top of El Caminto, which has unbelievably beautiful views everyway you look. It overlooks Holman Ranch which was closed last year because of construction. I ended up doing a lot of painting on the foreground in the studio but the horizon and upper third were pretty much what I did on location.

Wow, Robin! What's wrong with me? I've been away from your blog far too long. All of these are fantastic. I'm putting you in my reader right this minute.

This Valley Vertigo is quite stunning - that red in the right foreground is particularly effective.
