"Golden" - 12" x 9" - watercolor, gouache and ink on paper
Hard to tell in this image, but the highlights on the hills and some of the splashes in the sky are done with gold paint. Fun stuff.
I'll try to post a video tonight that shows how the light plays on the paint =)

I would to suggest that you try to do your paintings in a different style. I mean as a challenge :)

That's just the way I work to evolve my style -- sorry if you're bored =)

That's not to say that your style hasn't evolved or that anyone is tired of it. Just sometimes you don't know all that you can do til you try to do something you never thought about doing. Just my two cents on this topic.
