May in the Dunes

May was an interesting month for artwork. Ideas for the 8th painting in the abstract series evaporated, but a trip to Sand Dunes National Park proved inspirational. Playing on the Dunes was joyous fun, but learning to paint them, not so much. However, it was fun to see the grid patterns in photos of the dunes and get a deeper feel for the abstract design in realism. This is an 8"x10" watercolor.

We spent Saturday, May 21th at the Dunes during the rapture, and if you can't come up with a good rapture joke, don't worry, it's not the end of the world.
