Maudsley and European Arches may be finished

I say maybe because I'm done for now but who knows how I'll feel later on.  I'd like to do something more with the Maudsley painting, but it was such a dreary day anyway, and I did capture that!  I just like more colorful paintings, probably because I've been in my flower painting mode for a while now.
The picture doesn't even do it justice, it's safe to say that I will probably do something more with it.

Here are the progression pictures of the European Arches painting.  It was LOTS of perspective!
--and many shades of warm colors.

I do love warm colors.  :)

Lately...

I'm painting, just not finishing.  Saturday morning at the Cox Reservation, windy again so I took photos and listened to David.

Tuesday morning painted at Maudsley, here is my effort.  It needs some corrections, but so far all painted plein air.

What's the difference?  One photo was taken indoors and the other with natural light. 

Today I painted on the progression painting of European Arches.  Maybe one more day to finish it.
Here is it so far.
I sketched things in somewhat, then more or less started at the bottom right and worked my way around clockwise and have yet to work on the area at 3 o'clock.  Funny how one never attacks a painting the same way twice.
