Sutton 2021 last few paintings

 

As evening descended I made a few sunset paintings, it was very hot and hazy which created many pastel tones of blue, red and orange. The Hotel Horizon, set high up from the road was reflecting the sunset in its white plaster walls. That is an umbrella in on the deck. All the colours are infused with copious amounts of isoindo yellow (PY110).

As the sun went down I found an interesting scene of wildflowers probably rag weed and other weeds growing tall. The flowers were mostly yellow ochre with some of the isoindo yellow. That sliver of grey on the left is the road leading up to the parking lot of Hotel Horizons.

The next morning I made a quick painting from the vantage point of my room. You see the wrap-around deck and the breakfast eating area with big picture windows. There were also tables and chairs on the deck which is where I ate breakfast. You can see what a fantastic view they have.
