The painting is 1/2 sheet of hot-pressed watercolor paper. This is watermedia, because there are a few touches of acrylic paint which I added at the end for the orange leaves on the trees and the foreground.
Pamela and I are having a joint show in October at Riverside Art Center in Wapakoneta, Ohio - her photos, and my interpretations of her photos. This will be one of the paintings in the show.

What a great idea for a show! I constantly hear non-artists rave about paintings that "look like photographs." I like to think we IMPROVE on photographs!
I would like to think that also, Susan. My aim in all this is to paint my interpretation of the photo...in some cases rearranging elements, cropping, changing colors, etc. I will have to say, though, that Pamela is an awesome photographer with such a wonderful sense of composition. I am enjoying working on this with he very much.
