The past few nights we've been camping near Chicamauga Creek outside Chattanooga. The sandstone here is unreal - laced with these iron bands, and colored grey orange and pink.
As I look back on this one, I see that it all seems to be in a very narrow value scale. I suspect part of the problem might be that the waterbrushes inevitably dilute whatever color mixes I've created, so they're excellent for washes on the lighter side, but I need to figure out how to augment it with darker values. I picked up more cartridges for my brush pen, so maybe some India ink will help.
Also, it turns out water is super challenging to observe, let alone paint.
