Wonderful. :)
Can you please tell me what type of paper you have used. Thanks.
Lora Garcelon replied
Thanks! I used 1/4 sheet 140 lb Fabriano cold-pressed paper. I soaked the paper for 15 minutes, then painted on the wet paper using approx. 50/50 mixture of paint thinned with water. I lifted the areas of fog with a paper towel and tilted the board to make the drips and runs.

I love the tranquil feeling of this painting, especially the mist. I’m curious how you painted this—it looks like maybe you started with letting some washes run down the page, then painted over them. Is that correct? However you did it, it’s beautiful! Congrats on the feature.

Look just like the area that I live in. Where is this please? Well done, good placement and perspective etc. Lovely color.
