It has been really easy to let ballroom dancing, gardening and even painting the inside of the house from top to bottom replace my art. I have been avoiding painting because I have been working the same way over and over but somehow hoping for a better result. I was getting very frustrated and finally gave up.
Last night in the first class of Catherine Gibbon's low light landscape course I decided to go back to basics and the more intense colour that I love so much. I also decided there would be no fiddling. As the strokes went down they would stay untouched. I didn't end up with even a close to perfect painting but I am really excited about this because it was for the most part fun.
I can't wait to paint again.
I like this John, very nice colours & brushwork....Horizon is kinda half way so I would crop it at the top (or bottom) about 10%, but that's just me...
