Carrying on from the last picture this is another painting in The Big Sky series that won't be having an ominous sky. This one will be an evening sky over an old motel ("Skyline Motel") quite dark in the dusk light with the taillights of some cars on the road. The location is Vaughn in New Mexico which I think is on Route 66 like the last picture. I usually try to avoid obvious Americana but... couldn't resist dipping my toes in that water for this one.
This is the first stage where I have "drawn" it up with a small bristle brush using a mix of Burnt Sienna and Winsor Violet thinned with Liquin.
