Thanks Jon. The tops of these cliffs are usually pretty flat. This is sedimentary rock with very horizontal elements of slightly different colored layers of sandstone. This was once ocean bottom and now thrust upward and the face of it eroded by wind and water.

The blue and peach is a strong combo, the cliff seems to be parallel to the frame, Stu?

Thank you Laura, Cristina, Silvana, Hazel and Manneherrin. I was a little rushed on this because I am off to a plein air festival in Wisconsin for two weeks. I changed the scene a little with more emphasis on the cliff and tried to paint it in exactly the same fashion as Richard, alla prima. Most of the workshops I have not done alla prima; I was happy with the way this came out. Maybe all my outdoor painting the past couple of years is really sinking in, because I am doing a lot more alla prima work in the studio!!

I really like that radiating peach color in the middle.
