This is the watercolor version of Quarter 3. When I was working on the pastel version below I decided to deepen the values in front. I also wanted the rocks to read a rocks so I pumped up the value volume a bit.
The pastel version. This is very abstract. Of course I have that bipolar tug with this one. Part of me says don't touch it again and the other wants to go in and define it more.

It is nice to see the two paintings together. I lean toward the pastel because I like more intense color. The watercolor is lovely with lots of movement but more calm than the pastel. Anyway, I like them both. :)
