Washougal Riverbed

Oil on Canvas 2'x3'

This is probably my favorite of the series where I'm looking straight down into the riverbed, at least so far. A real challenge to work at all the value ranges: above the water surface in the light, above the surface in shadow, and then below the surface both in light and then in shadow. Sold to the Battle Ground Community Library, November 2014.
