Eiger, from Grindelwald. Direct Watercolor. 12"x9", Hesitant to paint scenes a trip to Switzerland. I stick to urban landscapes in some stage of decay, but - hopefully - with some grace. Something majestic in a much slower decline is tough.

Late afternoon sketches. Finding it very hard - when the snow is so blinding - that I can't just keep the sky the lightest value.

Afternoon value sketches. We moved into this place almost 9 years ago. The pangs and whistles of its steam radiators will sing this weekend if the predicted Artic Blast arrives.

Early Evening Deli. Direct Watercolor. 20"x16", 140lb Arches Cold Press. Been really into trying my hand at nocturnes, but "success" (read: didn't crumple up paper in frustration) rate is near 10%.

Lisbon Dawn. Direct Watercolor. 20"x16", 140lb Arches Cold Press. This scene means a lot to me. After the second wash I was ready to trash it... then I thought I couldn't ruin it any more. I see some good parts.

Morning value sketches. They say some rain will come in and take away the snow I have grown fond of adding to these... even reaching a little out of my comfort zone. I usually steer away from trees.

Morning value sketches. The markers I usually use for my four-value notans are running dry, so I picked up the three neglected middle value markers to see what cropped up. Seemed like November.
