What attracted me to the scene in the beginning was the sunset, but as the sky got darker I noticed the bands of colour on the road. In the watercolour sketch they are very underdeveloped, but when I started looking at the reference photo I decided to bring them out. I also liked the grass in the foreground, which I didn't really notice when I sitting in it. (I was too busy swatting at the numerous mosquitoes. The life of a Canadian plein air painter is itchy.)
