One of the benefits of travel is to be able to gather reference material that can be used for developing paintings. This piece is from Cimarron, Colorado during a magical sunset.
Whether painting en Plein Air or from reference photos, nature will rarely offer the perfect composition, so I arranged some of the elements in the foreground to balance the composition.
During the golden hour, the colors are at their highest chroma, which provides a colorful yet balanced harmony.
