In a Canal Zone


In the bottom canal I started with washes of acrylic on watercolor paper, and then completed it with pastels. For the top canal I did a pastel painting on colourfix paper, and then wiped the whole thing down with a soft brush, a sort of dry wash (I did that outside). Then I reworked it again with pastel. As I wrote yesterday, I was trying to stay loose and painterly.
