Skyline Sunset Watercolor Painting Of Piedmont Park Key Points:
- Water
- Landscape
- Ink
This lovely watercolor is from the edge of Lake Clara Meer looking toward the midtown skyscrapers. I have carefully done the watercolor of the water so that it reflects both the trees and the buildings in the background.
I have made it a point not to use very much ink in this painting and let the watercolors have the stage.
The horizon line is gently below the center so that the base of the buildings would be adequately supported by the image of the trees and the reflections in the water. The green is heavily mixed with lemon yellow to give a lighter tone to the foliage.
