Headlands and Voe

This had an interesting genesis.  I was enjoying the lovely fall walking the Pack and would not have time to paint the 9X24 of the Genesee River Valley.  I also haven't figured out how to paint it.  So I did the little sketch on card stock.  I thought it was going to be sky, water, rocks scene.  When I transferred it to the panel I saw a voe and headlands.

These panels are super slick.  To say they don't hold paint easily is an understatement.  Roofing tar would look semi-transparent.  So...if I am going to paint in one setting I need to be patient and recognize that the brush will grab and expose the gessoed surface.

Two brushes:  6 Lukas Flat and 8 Rosemary Long Filbert Series 278 (for light blending).  The Flat was used to "paste" the paint.  I also used a trowel knife and a wooden skewer.
