Bob Marshall Wilderness (Saw): November 9, 2009

This is an acrylic painting (in progress) of a pack train in the Bob Marshall wilderness. The saw was first cleaned, then primed with several coats of primer and a couple of coats of acrylic gesso. The drawing was laid out and an undercoating of a warm mid-tone of acrylic was painted in. This layer is a light brick red which can still be seen on the foreground hill. The mountains and creek bottom are the areas that are complete.
