Reflections on a Rainy Day

The name of this Triad is called Reflections (Blue Apatite Genuine, Deep Sap Green and Transparent Brown Oxide) and it is an apt name.  What lovely granulating washes the blue apatite made for the distant mounts and the deep sap green is so lush  I did use my favorite, verditer blue for the sky and water.

I like the haphazard washes and energy in the water and mountains.  I also like how the sky and granulated blue mountains gives it a feel of a rainy day, which are perfect days for reflections.

And the title also follows the great tradition of similar titles and concepts.
