I have never worked with oil and wouldn't know where to begin. the watercolor is fresh and loose. Thanks for also showing us the reference photo.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00021360855817039262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34303509.post-3376773141652827452008-01-14T13:58:00.000-08:002008-01-14T13:58:00.000-08:00Peter thank you for your suggestion's I will remem...Peter thank you for your suggestion's I will remember these for my next landscape painting - which I'm hoping to do a lot more of. Thanks.<BR/><BR/>Lin, well, maybe a slight exageration... the "truly wlll done", but I appreciate the vote of confidence you always are able to give me.<BR/> <BR/>Elio ... how nice of you to stop by. I'd love for you to one day address on your blog "brush strokes" I enjoy how us use so few brush strokes to convey the object you are painting ... and the direction of the brush stroke. I don't realize until I've put down the brush for the day that the brush stroke would have been better going a diff. direction. So much to learn.....<BR/><BR/>Hey Carol ... so glad it looks familiar, I knew I didn't make that scene up in my head. *wink.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Cynthia. In about a year I'll give this landscape another try ... see if I can't do it justice.Nancy Van Blaricomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17030893675129815727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34303509.post-58092246446404095482008-01-13T08:15:00.000-08:002008-01-13T08:15:00.000-08:00Your water color feels a little more spontaneous, ...Your water color feels a little more spontaneous, but, maybe that's owing to the fact that you feel more comfortable with the medium? <BR/><BR/>I like both of your paintings, and think that if someone was familiar with that spot, they would have an emotional connection to the painting.Cynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10854055999177382091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34303509.post-73859168135450850272008-01-11T22:46:00.000-08:002008-01-11T22:46:00.000-08:00looks awfully familiar!!

I don't know a thing about oils -- but I like what you've accomplished -- and the watercolor reminds me of warm summer days on the beach .....

If you don't mind, I would suggest that you go back and add some sky color into the trees and distant hills and the beach near the horizon. That will give you more of the emotion you are looking for and correct the values you mention. The painting will be charming.Peter Yesishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08167175210256144372noreply@blogger.com
