Developing Shapes
 Although
this picture may seen much more developed than the last, it was the result of
only around twenty more minutes work. What I am doing here is breaking down the
big shapes into smaller shapes, using the local color of the smaller shapes.
Often, this means painting specific objects, such as a few of the more prominent
trees in the background, but it also meant identifying shapes of color within
the water. Unlike in previous stages, the paint I am adding here is likely to
remain visible in the finished painting. I am mostly covering up the original
dry brushed strokes, although some of the strokes of color I used in the
previous stage to help define the big shapes also contained more of the local
color found within those shapes and are left alone.
