ground fog

7x10 pastel on watercolor

On our warmer mornings the field has been blessed with ground fog. Like a vapor from a saucepan the fog rises from the land and is thickest on the grass, rising to the trees. When the sun breaks through it's quite amazing.
I tried to modify the colors gradually and stick to mostly grays.

That's really nice - a good combination of warms and cools.

Hi Donna, that's what it is all about, eh? Thanks for your kind words.

It has the smoothness of a luminous oil painting Loriann. Lovely combination of warm light and mist. One of my favourites.
