In my last post I showed you all the original painting I'd been working on then a revised version. Brenda and Gloria were kind enough to share their thoughts on it which I totally agreed with...so after stepping back and taking a good look at it, I think I finally like the revised revised painting..ehehhe!!!
Thanks girls for being totally honest with me! I am a self taught artist who's only been painting for about a year in ernest! I think I need to take some course in shading and such.
Now, I'd like more constructive advise if you all don't mind...that's a good way to learn...and God knows I'm learning...eheheh!!!
Have a great day!!!

wow, this is great! that little tweaking really did it hey? You will learn every time you paint. My only other tip is to look out at the distance. Any outdoor scene. What do you see in the farthest distance compared to what you see in the closest to you?
You should notice that far away colors are very muted, and strong colors are up front. This is what gives us the elusion of distance. Air particles between us and some thing far away mutes the colors.
I love your style and peacefulness in your work!
a very serene landscape -- i want to crawl into the painting and stretch out on the shore. I can just hear the seagulls. Thanks for the little escape.
I will soon be posting a class newsletter signup on my blog sidebar -- so I can let folks know when registration opens and send class updates.

I agree with Susan. It is such a great painting, I too want to crawl inside of your painting and just kick back and look at the water. Thx for sharing.
It really become a lovely painting.
Isn´t it wonderful to create an own world?
Have a good week
