"En plein air" over two days in July 2023 and Feb 2024 at the White Rocks Overlook Park. The Black Mesa in the San Ildefonso Pueblo stands out when looking out toward the Sangre de Cristo Mountain range.
Armature:
I used the expanded Dynamic Symmetry Armature in the design phase. The Black Mesa is located at the intersection of the "baroque" diagonal with its perpendicular reciprocal, at the upper right. Note also how the main cliff aligns with the diagonal of the right rebated square. This cliff is slightly steeper than the "sinister" diagonal.
