Loosening up

I'm preparing for my third acrylic.  Here's the series of sketches I've done for it - each one looser than the one before.

My first-ever acrylic

I don't know why I decided to abandon my beloved watercolors, but for the time being I'm trying acrylics. Of course, without any training and only reading a couple books about the how-to's. I think I should take a class. But here's my first try. I'm going to make a couple of improvements, but this is pretty close to "ready."

I spent hours putting pictures into the trip report, and they didn't come through in the blog. I'm very disgusted.
