New Year, New Landscape

The first update in 2012 is a new landscape. But the scenery is the same valley along SR-10 near Cle Elum (See my blog on Nov. 8, 2011). I painted there two months ago.
Canvas size is 22"x18", same as "Sauvie Sky". I might continue painting landscapes in vertical format a while. I like this format because I can put close foreground as well as far background and sky. I painted like a child at this first stage.
