Sketch by Sarah Sullivan of Two Aspen Trees

Two Aspen Trees

This is a second version of the last sketch I posted showing the view from the window here in Telluride. In fact, it was my first try of this view but I put it aside thinking that I could do better. Later I put it back up on my easel and from time to time would add more color until it became heavily overpainted, mostly with gouache, but also with pen and watercolor pencil.

    This is a success Sarah!!! Love the vertical lines, the addition of darks in the upper center adds great depth- and the colors of the dueling aspens are exciting and engaging! Love.
