It got me thinking that it's been ages since I painted something. It's been positively eons since I took up those evil oils that always seem to foil my lovely ideas.
So, what a nice surprise to have an oil turn out almost as it should. And to have it be a landscape (that pesky subject has eluded me since the dawn of time) has given me a proper smile today.
Hurrah for try, try, trying!
EDIT: I've had a REALLY productive morning and managed to do two more small landscapes.
Ha! You can see my strokes getting rougher as the day has progressed. I think I'll put those oil brushes down for the rest of the day... though I can't promise I won't pick up some other ones :)
I'm glad to hear that at least *someone's* painting turn out as they should... lol...
ReplyDeleteMine always end up a little (or a lot...), um, off... from what I set out to paint. ^-^
I love the rich greens. They're lovely.
Absolutely lovely, especially the clouds.
ReplyDeleteWonderful! I have given up oil paintings eons ago. They were never my friend. Glad to see someone can master them!
ReplyDeleteI very much like the one at the bottom... I'm always in awe of people who can paint... it's not my medium. I have lovely images in my brain, but they don't seem reproducible! LOL!
