The background and the water gave me so much grief on this one, I changed them and changed them and changed them. And then I remembered.
Simplify.

Painting outdoors is incredibly challenging, but it is also infinitely rewarding. There are moments when I have just spent an hour or two completeing a painting and am cleaning my palette when I stop to look around and I realize I am in an altered state, connected with the landscape on a deep level, rooted in it. Integrated. It is this sense that I have become more and more aware of throughout the course of this project.
In the end it doesn't much matter if my painting turns out, I have been changed by the experience, and that's what I hope will show up my future work.
Liz! #91 is fab! You're on fire!

ReplyDeleteWow, you've done it again! And only 8 more to see, sigh. THat streak of light on the water in Late Day Light is fabulous, makes the whole painting. Another keeper, eh?
ReplyDeleteThanks so much you guys! Wow, I am sure going to miss all your wonderful feedback and support when 100 has been posted!
ReplyDeleteBobbi, "Late Day Light" went home to live with some dear friends.
I love the glow! Fantastic for both. #91 really feels like the Emerald Kingdom!
ReplyDeleteYou are coming down the stretch now - and each painting is more impressive than the last. What a masterful command of greens in your 'Green on Green', and 'Late Day Light' is my idea of heaven...
