Lovely Katie .. I like the one red roof .. it anchors the greens while the black and white balance the blue/green dominance of color. There are a couple of real nice resting spots and I can't say which I like best but I'm thinking it's the black and white near the center. Great piece of art.

thanks, I'm hoping to try to start painting some more this year as I painted this one a while ago. I'm moving house this month so I want to get settled before I get all my painting stuff out. Glad you like it.

great to see your work again Katie, its been a while. The tension between the red and green roof balances the whole piece. Good luck with the move, hope it proves to be inspiring

Oh wow that's wonderful! I love the jumble of buildings in their green foliage surroundings. If you happen to have any close-ups I'd love to admire the texture a little more too.

I would just say what they said above. Good to see your work again Katie. Superb.

I find this to be quite a stunning work.

Beautiful and interesting to look at! A viewer could spend some time with this painting.

I will see what I can do.

I love this! Cool balance between intention and spontaneity, if I am reading it correctly. Love it.

 

[Arnie]

Beautiful and facinating. Love the glimpses of the jumble of houses with tin rooves thru the greenary. Strong design. Like the odd details adding realism like the washing.

I like the scene. The red pulls me in and then I'm left to wander about. Very pleasing.

That is just beautiful Katie! Is it all knife work?

It's a mixture of knife/brushes and I think I used a rubber roller as well.

Well, beautiful job, no matter the tools.

I can see the roller parts and love the technique in all of it. It's a really great piece!

What is the size of it?

What is the size of it?

It was 30" x 20". I've realised I love working on wood more than anything else.

I've been in love with gessoboards, not canvas.

 

[Terri]

Wow! This is a stunner! I love seeing the brush and roller marks, and every bit of that texture. Your palette is beautiful, and the bit of red is brilliant. Gorgeous!

A lovely, piece, Katie. So nice to see your work again! This follows my theory that a little spot of bright red somewhere can really make a painting.
