Village Rooftop

[Grapes]

Again posting an old pleinair painted in the province of Seville. I'm standing on the rooftop terrace and painting the view of the village houses and the olive fields. In the beginning there was the laundry hanging but a guy came to collect it in the middle of the painting process. I hope I didn't post this one already before here in pleinair.
Oil on oil paper, 20x30 cm.

Beautiful. I haven't seen this one before. I agree with another commenter on another post just your paintings are better than the landscape.

 

[Grapes]

Thank you Jade for your kind words!
I'm looking a little bit downwards this view and then there are the olive fields even lower level distance so I didn't rly know how to paint this kind of view but just started painting and decided to see what comes out of it. It's fun to spend time on this roof top with my cat but I need to watch the cat super carefully not leaving her alone for a second because I've even seen very big birds flying curves high above these terraces.

You did a great job and the olive fields curve up nicely. Ooh yes, you wouldn't want a flying kitty!

Grapes, I also do no remember seeing this. Very well done with e difficult vantage point.

 

[Grapes]

Thanks, Joy!

Ooh yes, you wouldn't want a flying kitty!

Oh no, that wouldn't be a good thing at all.
It's amazing how much bigger birds and exotic fauna you can find in the warm climate.

 

[Jade]

Definitely not. Yes, they can be a lot bigger!

Well done. I like unusual perspectives.

Amazing work, Grapes! I like that you pulled off the “no sky” look.

 

[Grapes]

Sno & Donna, thank you so much!
Your right it's nice to change a little bit the view angle and leave out the sky. I have somewhere a better photo of this angle showing also the laundry hanging there and will post it later but need to go through files first to find it.

Good point about "no sky". Works well.
