Another pic in my Landscope Series. I decided to explore this theme of above and below land. Perhaps I will expand to include other subjects or objects. I've done 5 so far.
I've been using the same watercolor paint pans, same size and type of paper; Arches 140lb cold pressed, 11"x14", for each one. I'm usually trying new materials and different sizes of paper.
I'm going to create some parameters and structure to continue this project. I've been getting some encouragement from friends on these pieces, so I'm excited to do more and see what developes.

Landscape or Landfill?
I'm very excited about the series of paintings I'm calling "Land
Scopes". Naturally, there's an occasional 'practice' piece. Watercolor
is not forgiving; it's easy to make mud. I always try to salvage the
picture by adding another medium, so I applied oil pastels. The colors
were vibrant, but it still didn't do it for me. I was getting ready to
pick up the scissors and make a collage out of it when I turned it
upside down to look at. I liked it. Ha
What do you think? Do you like one? Which one? What do you like about it? Should it just become 'Land Fill?'
