Season of Mists


This work has two sources of inspiration. The first is the Mersey River in Nova Scotia and the second is the poem TO AUTUMN by John Keats. The Mersey River has many moods and I shall be looking at and painting some of them during the coming months. At this bend in the river, I am standing on the rocks in the river looking up stream. The mood is peaceful with a humid atmosphere. This watercolor was painted in the tetrad that can be found in the November tip page. As can be seen, there is a possibility of many colors and a variety of values.
