'Mountain pass' 6 x 6 in.  acrylic on board.

We were down south and near the mountains early autumn a year ago. I took a bunch of photos for painting reference later.
This week I hauled them out of my i photo files, chose what I thought had the most potential and cropped them heavily for these little 6x6 in. studies. Its a quick way to see if any of them could make bigger paintings. Some work some don't.

This one above definitely has potential I think. I simplified the trees ( there were lots more), moved the road around to make it more interesting and increased the amount of lake showing at the base of the mountain.
