Thank you, Kim, linda, Liz and Victor. I found that the addition of Sap Green helped me achieve the greens that I was searching for. I enjoyed painting this painting; but then, I had been thinking about the composition it for some time!
I took this photo in early Spring when the light was very clear and bright. This plot of land is a place that I walk by everyday with my dog. I contemplated what I wanted to focus on many times as I passed by. I appreciate your comments they encourage my exploration into landscape painting.
I am enjoying landscape painting so much. It is partly because the Finetec waterolors that I use. They are so incredibly beautiful....ssooooo beautiful.....each stroke is a stroke of LOVE....... www.lindahuntfineart.com
I LOVE 'girl' things like lipstick, perfume, nail polish bottles, and pretty little compact cases. In this painting I was working for limited strokes. I would lay down the paint and leave it without manipulating it in any way. 6X6 inches oil Raymar canvas panel (Archival)
Red Orange is another of my favorite colors. When I saw this great tea pot in one of the stores in town I wanted it right away. But, I thought and thought about it and when I went back to the store it was still there and I decided that it was mine! I am not a tea drinker but I have always loved the shapes and sizes and variety of design of teapots. In this painting I backlit the teapot with natural and studio lighting. I was experimenting with the changing values and shadow. 8X8 inches oil Raymar Canvas Panel (Archival)
