Doronne de Chaviere
The mountains around Pralognan are crowned by three enormous glaciers, which control a micro-climate in the valley below. In the summer the melt water gallops downhill in glorious shades of cobalt turquoise and green over the soft yellows and purples of the underlying rocks.
These rivers have an undeniable attraction for me, yet I approach them with dread as the bubbling waters are notoriously difficult to capture in paint. Once again I am beguiled.
This is another sketchpad entry, but I think it would look good framed and hanging on a wall, so I will cut a mount for it and add it to my 'exhibition' stock.
