| Buffalo Sunrise 11x14 Watercolor and Pastel Painting |
In March I started this painting as part of Gary Keimig's Wilderness Art Challenge. I began the painting as a watercolor but wanted to make it more atmospheric so I used my pastels to create a light misty effect. I used the challenge photograph for the initial painting, but I was strongly influenced by my memory of a wonderful vacation to Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Up early one morning my husband and I encountered a group of buffalo grazing in an early morning fog. That morning gathering was mystical and would never be forgotten!
