Revisiting Leavenworth

Leavenworth Afternoon, pastel, 5 x 7 inches
sold

It has been years since I was at Sleeping Lady Resort in Leavenworth, WA but I find myself going back again and again to the reference photos I took on that visit.

This time, I painted a scene from late afternoon as the sun cast long shadows of the trees along the riverbank. I started this in our Friday afternoon painting group and finished it up in the Studio. The paper is Pastelmat, my new favorite surface. I took one progress photo before I got involved in painting and forgot to pause to take more.
