Mc Kee Fall 1

I'm starting on a series of four large watercolors for McKee Hospital in Loveland, Colorado.  The individual paintings depict local mountain scenes as viewed during the four seasons.  The first piece I'm working on is Fall, with lots of brilliant autumn colors.

The first step was to paint the sky and the distant mountain range with Mount Meeker & Longs Peak.  I also sketched in the aspen trees and a rough outline of the major elements; this establishes the "flow" of the design early on.
