Cerulean Blue Backgrounds - Two Works in Progress

It is hard to believe that the temperature went up overnight to 32F (0C) and it had rained, which with the rapid temperature drop afterward caused a flash freeze.

The roads iced up, in fact everything turned to ice. Now the wind has picked up and it is snowing. Currently it is -8F (-22C) and all the doors on my vehicles are frozen shut so it will have to wait until tomorrow before I get around to trying to thaw them out.

I pulled out a couple of small paintings that I had started a while ago (see post on 27 February 2012 and on 12 December 2013) and painted the background with a flat wash of cerulean blue and then set them both aside to dry.

I will post both paintings at a later date once more work on them has been completed.
