More Naturalistic Rock Cliff and Waterfall Area
I had been a little frustrated with this mural around the area of the waterfall and rock cliffs. Today however, we worked out all the things that bugging me about it. Before we had too many colors and the design rhythm in the rocks was too much the same, same, same. Now we have more natural looking shapes and they are blocked in with nice design rhythm. The neutral colors are much better. Now the stage is almost set to paint slivers of sunlight skittering across the top portion of the cliffs. On the staircase of cliffs behind the Waterfall, we added some alpine growth, bringing larger masses of some of this growth to it's base behind the line of aspen trees bathed in light. The large mass of trees grouped together kept the area from getting too busy and will add nice contrast to the aspen trees in front. Tomorrow, we'll add more dimension and form to this area and work on Roberts Point a little. Once we get the two main peaks and the waterfall area working well, the rest of the mural is basically just trees and rocks and should go much faster.
