Day 25, and I did not complete a painting. I am working on a larger version of Day 23's painting: Indiana Dunes Lakeshore.  Here is a photo of the work on the easel; the smaller version along side the work-in-progess. In an effort to avoid adding more detail than is necessary I am working from the small version and not referring to the original photo.

This photo shows the pastel/alcohol underpainting for the painting Winter River Light.

Here is the work-in-progress, Winter River Light, 7" x 9" pastel on Uart 400 paper. I will need to work on cleaning up the shapes of the  background trees and the shapes of the sun filtering through the trees.
