The driver of our tour bus shouted “Caribou ahead!” and we all reached for our cameras! What a stroke of luck that I was sitting on the left side of the bus and had THE perfect view as the beast ambled by!

My husband and I had a wonderful trip to Alaska. I’ve been doing a lot of new paintings based on photos I took there.

The whole study was done in about an hour. The usual palette was used and the gessobord was coated with a dilute mixture of cadmium vermillion and sevres blue (which was dry before I began the painting). This gives a nice warm undertone that shows through.
