Quiet River

Quiet River

This is the Smokey Hill River just outside Salina Kansas.  I did a pastel of it last summer and a charcoal study.  This is an oil on gesso board, 8 x 10.  I'm still experimenting with things so there is a mix of techniques in this.  
Someone at Daniel Smith Art store put a tube of oil-based Thalo yellow green in the water base oil section that I accidentally bought and tried to use here, mixing with water.  Water and oil don't mix very well.  I put some linseed oil on it and it got happy.  makes for an interesting painting.


It's always something...
