"Honeoye Lake Heat" - 12"x 18" pastel |
One super hot day this summer, I found this beautiful little park at the northern end of Honeoye Lake in the Finger Lakes region of Upstate NY. There is an absolutely spectacular view straight down the lake. When I painted this in August, I knew I wanted to enhance the intensity of the color in the sky. It was a hot, humid day with loads of haze and some of the color was lost. Today was the day to take care of that issue! Punched up the color and now it's finished.
