Canberra landscape triptych - work up



My idea of canberra's edges as a disconnect in this triptych. First begun with a set of photographs taken around the Curtin storm water drain and the southern end of the lake.



Then worked up in color pencil.




And then a first paint up in gouache.



Finally a decision of the triptych divisions.

That is really valuable seeing the evolution of a painting. Please do that again for another one?

I have done so in some detail with the Portrait of young woman in thailand in the December post.
