PPF on Saturday!

Happy PPF on Saturday morning!
My camera and computer were being a pain last night so I'm posting late for PPF!
I love the contrasting colors that Yellowstone offers. The Aqua center of the steam pools that goes to to a dark burnt orange. I took over 700 photos on my trip and I still didn't take enough! I think I could live in Wyoming and never run out of things to paint! WOW!
Here's is what inspired me SO much from the trip 2 years ago.


I thought nothing in Minnesota could compare! Until this summer on a trip up to Duluth I was dreaming of what it would be like to live there... I discovered these rocks! I had to paint it... I'm SO in love with the color combo! It reminds me of Yellowstone!



So there you have it! Aqua and orange! mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
Have a great Saturday! =)
