House By The Park

[Bongo]

From a row of houses, I chose the Thomas Kinkade then set up on the grassy knoll. Have I mentioned that there are a lot of trees in Seattle?

For the painting support, I'm using one of my Plein Errors, sprayed with a grey automotive primer-sealer to cover up the image.

Lovely, lovely, lovely! Love these greens and how you selected to blend them together, contrasting them with this sky. Brilliant!

THANK YOU!

Well done- again! I remember autumn light in the PacNW- luckily it is still sunny! One of my siblings up in Jackson Hole Wy has snow in spots already!

PS: I *LOVE* Plein Errors!

Thanks JStarr, about this time of year the sun stays low in the sky. Yes, Plein Errors - I got a few.

I like the choices of greens. I especially like the pickup. Nice work and day for you.

Thanks Jo, always appreciate hearing from you.

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. It's a lovely palette, and I agree with Jo that the pickup truck is just perfect. I like how you "removed" some of the trees/foliage so the view of the house is open. Great job!
