After working in the background, I hit the weeds with the foreground!
I was working alongside the great Joe Paquet
“JOE!” I need help here!
Talk about a pressure gig working next to this living legend…
You gotta see the full version of this, watching my teeth get kicked in - trying to capture all that beauty and cram it into a little panel. It’s not easy! Still, this has been one of the best things to help my perception of what light and colour does in the landscape.
I’ll keep trying, and keep drawing upon my experience of working with Joe out in the field. This was the lesson of a lifetime!
