Day 2 of 30 Day Challenge - "Bridge to Gold Beach" 10x10 Oil on Canvas

Day 2 of 30 day paint challenge .  This is painting of Gold Beach , OR .  It is a wonderful place to visit and plein air paint.  Note: it can get a little windy so prepare for it.  For me, this was another opportunity to paint distance and their wonderful landmark bridge.  I started this piece with dark under paintings. I kept pushing back the mountains with blue and more white to show they were in the distance and comparing it to the sky and the water. I added naples yellow light and a little white to my original meadow color as I painted the background meadow. I cooled down the green grasses in the meadow with more white and blue.   I made sure I  added dark accents in the foreground.  I enjoyed the process.
