Almost there...time to rip the tape!
It's finally time for the sky! This is really where the yellow underpaint helps out quite a bit. Depending on how much paint I use, the yellow background bleeds through the paint. It's working better than I anticipated.

Here's my painting of the Palmer Water Tower from back in January, with Matanuska Peak in the background. It's one of my favorite paintings this year.
For more information about the painting, check out the link below:

The original painting as well as art prints are available for purchase for those that would like a view of Palmer in their home.

It features the iconic Palmer water tower, unique in its kind in Alaska, and a recognizable part of the Palmer downtown, visible from all directions as you approach the town center. In the background, Matanuska Peak stands tall about the downtown area, the two standing together in a way.
