Valles Caldera National Preserve in early October. I would live there if I could.
PhilRedbeard@Tamami I always wish I could live in your paintings. Whereโs Mary Poppins when you need her?
@PhilRedbeard Well, now that you mention it, I too want to live in my paintings... There are no people in them... especially the bad ones! ๐คฃ Thank you for your kind words, Phil!
BunnyMama@BunnyMama Yes, I saw MANY of them, and a fat coyote (who gets plenty of proteins, so it appears)!
there is beauty in simplicity@Tamami I want to go there ๐
@kinsale42 Highly recommended!
Crafty ใ ๐@Tamami ๐ stunning. Pastels are always something Iโve returned too over the years but never quite got the hang of them the way Iโd like too.
This is beautiful work (all of yours is!) thanks for the inspiration (and motivation) ๐ค
@craftykraken Thank you for your kind word. The key to "interesting" pastel paintings is... underpainting and experiments!
Saule, anar en Mousses@Tamami the greens are my favourite part. I mean, I love everything but. I have a soft spot for green.
It reminds me of hiking in the moutains (the Mercantour, southern Alps). Different but familiar in a way.
@PeryleneBleu Yes, this place had such soft warm greens (because there are almost always some water running through this plain). I was there near the sunset hour, and that light made the grasses look more copper-orangey. It was beautiful.
