CARCASONNE NOCTURNE: Found it!

Acrylics on Watercolor Paper
15" x 20"
Progress as of May 19, 2014 a.m.

Last night, I kept looking at my progress and wondering what was wrong - I knew something was off-kilter but couldn't quite put my finger (or brush!) on it.  As I started to fill in the lower walls this morning, it pounced out at me!

An entire section of wall and an archway missing..........added them immediately and I feel much better now.  Still blocking in the rest of the fortress, but getting closer to where I start to feel good about what I see from a "viewing distance."

I dedicate this one to the person who asked me how many different lighthouses there are to paint.  I will, of course, return to lighthouses - or maybe not- but in the meantime, I give you a view of another stone edifice at night - with a bit of water too.  I am thoroughly enjoying all the blues, purples and greys as I mix them in their varying values and shades.
