I was looking at some posts while eating breakfast, intending to come back and add comments later, but these were so terrific that I had to stop and comment right away. Your subject matter, your eye for composition, and your brush handling are wonderful. Excellent work!

Hello ZUPZUP,

those sketches are spectacular. Sketches? I think you could call some of them plein-air paintings.

WOW....thank you everyone for all of the positive feedback, it is sincerely appreciated.
I encourage any of you that have not tried gouache before to give it a go. It is a lot of fun to paint with.

Wow! These are incredible! I love working in gouache, but hadn't thought to use it on a SketchCrawl. Will try that next time. Had to look up Thompson Falls. I see it's right in the mountains. I was up in Coeur D'Alene npot too long ago. Gorgeous country.

Really beautiful. Nice with someone that took the crawl out in mother nature.

MarilynnB - Thank you! Yes indeed, Thompson Falls has not a lot here other than mountains, but a great place to live none the less.

crgcas - Appreciate the comments. Most of these are pretty small.......3"x4" inches, or something around that.

flevolaf - Thanks. Where I live I don't have to crawl very far to be out in nature.

Bibi - Thank you so much! Glad you enjoy these.
