Studies XII and XIII

Since returning from our trip to Spain a couple of months ago, I revisited the sunset and sunrise images, taking into consideration the color schemes in Goya's paintings that I viewed during our stay in Madrid (but I still haven't figured out how he successfully eliminated green from his landscapes). I've transferred the compositions to the large canvasses and I'll post pictures of works-in-progress soon. If you are visiting this blog for the first time, please visit the blog archive and the project overview.
