View from Ellis Hollow Road

11-1/2” x 8-1/2”, WC and Gouache on 140lb. Hot press

Painted from photo I took nearby. Again, had to finish sky and cloudas with gouache.
What do you think, overworked?

 

[Queen Bee]

Beautiful. Not overworked.

 

[KreativeK]

My sentiments exactly! Landscapes are not easy. You have made every inch enjoyable.

 

[Artyczar]

Not overworked, in fact it's gorgeous. I love that you used the gouache in the clouds. It gives it some texture that makes the whole painting, I think. I'm in love with the hills and all the greens you used in this. Just superb!

 

[Balaji]

This is lovely and in my opinion the sky is not overworked. I also like the variety of greens in your painting.

 

[P. Barrie]

Debora, Kay, Ayin, Balaji, thank you for your support.

 

[Terri]

A lot to enjoy in this painting - from the overall beauty of the palette to your excellent rendering of tiny details. This is wonderful. Not overworked.

 

[Donna T]

All this needs is a frame! I am mentally walking in that field and looking into the far distance. So beautiful!

 

[Jo Castillo]

This is beautiful. Good combination of media. Detail and texture.

I think it's beautiful. I like the changes you made to the second version. The whole painting just lit up!

 

[P. Barrie]

Perry, Sno, Anne, thanks for commenting!
Changes were subtle. I think the brightness of the second pic is mostly due to the lighting when the pic was taken making the color of the second a little warmer, probably truer.

Lovely work, it draws my eye into the scene nicely.

Hi P. The first one is definitely not overworked, the second is even better. Nice depth on the hills.

 

[P. Barrie]

Claudia, Murray, thanks .

 

[Artyczar]

Even better!

 

[P. Barrie]

Thanks again Ayin

A nice painting. I like the changes in the second version. As the others said, it has a nice depth.
As for the light conditions, when I take a photo in poor light I do a white balance of the photo with a software afterwards, to increase the likeliness of the photo to the real painting.
