Thompson Falls - Montana - USA [RESULTS]
Wade worked up this beautiful image with oil pastel of his bunt cake and coffee......which quickly then disappeared to make a home in his belly.
While Wade was working on his oil pastel, I worked this gouache/watercolor on a Moleskin watercolor book as I looked out the window at a railroad signal platform. After that was completed I sketched out two others, before finally laying brush to paper at a bowling alley for my final image......enjoy!
This should be it for now.....hopefully there are two more sketchers that did the deed, and will soon be turning in their results as well.
Wade's work has tons of energy. I really dig it, and it makes me want to try oil pastel.
On the other hand, you really communicated "winter" very well in the outdoor sketches. Nice work! Makes me want to try guache

Really like your winter sketches. They're spare, clean and lots of white space. They really capture montana. Especially the garage scene with pickup.

Thanks Mr. Sch!!.......Appreciate the encouragement. I try to stay very conscious of keeping my strokes fast and loose. Hopefully being able to capture the essence or spirit of the scene, without smothering the life out of it. Of course I'm guilty of putting many a good painting death, unable to hear the sounds of it slowly suffocating.
