Mojave Vista One

5x7 watercolor with pastel and charcoal on paper. I enjoy doing these abstract landscapes. They are restful for me. They flow and I just try to stay out of the way and keep them immediate and loose. My geometric abstracts are more difficult and time consuming probably because they are puzzle like. When I have a lack of energy, these abstract landscapes refresh me. Does that make sense?
