Shipton progressing

Shipton Spire

Photo by Tim Kemple. Alpinist 23

Sacred Valley

Painting these from a photo found in the April issue of NGM. I've spent some time in the Sacred Valley and I was taken by the storm clouds hovering in the top part of this image, the dark purpleish mountains in the background and the geometric patterns of the fields in the foreground, cleanly bissected by this crisp, cool road. I've painted two versions both on crappy "practice" paper. I just don't have the patience to spend time getting the fields correct in great details. I might try this one more time this weekend. But I also found a Shipton Spire image that is quite appealing, we'll see how much sleep L manages to get and energy I have left over to paint. I'm also hoping to get back to Bull Run Mtn to sketch the progression of the colors.
