Landscape painting - fog - 15 x 22 inches

More watercolor pigments have been applied to the middle ground of the landscpe watercolor painting.  Doing the underpainting with Burnt Umber makes me think about the tonal scale and value of the painting instead of color.  Watercolor pigments are added later during the progress of the watercolor painting.  It would be another one or two sessions before the painting is finished and from this point on, details will be added with the overall mood of the painting in mind.  This is the time where artistic licence is used to alter the scene to suit the atmosphere and color.  The orginal photo is for reference only and more can be added on or left out to enhance the finished watercolor painting.
