I was a little nervous when trying to get some sky color on my support. What colors should I mix ... how do I 'say' it was a sunny day? All parts of my attempt to learn. I was painting this from a photograph and I don't think the sky reads the same as in person. Anyway I am moving forward, writing down some thoughts as I continue on. If you are wondering what that is in the bottom right corner, its a bulldog clip, holding my support onto my easel ...
I'm off to England tomorrow, Nancy, but I'll be watching.
ReplyDeleteThe sky looks good. Skies always is lighter and greanish near the horizon, getting darker in value as you go up. Just read a great article on this from James Gurney in the Feb./Mar. issue of International Artist Magazine.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you're off to a great start, Nancy . . . looking forward to seeing it completed.
ReplyDeleteI'm watching the progress...it's looking good!
