A Play of Light and Shade.
You might have seen this one before on social, but my/these blog posts include more stuff like palette and scene impression pics. I always try to add a few takeaways in these to reward or inspire you.
I love this painting because it’s showing many differences in light & shade, it’s tied together well. Good vibes. Summerish!
The composition draws you in. I love cloud reflections because it can add to the ‘vastness’ of the space.
Always paint the thing you love. To (be able to) create something lovely. Find beauty & paint it. There’s beauty to be found in all landscapes, wherever you are!
But don’t get stuck on what you don’t have. You will have Your great views.
Sometimes you’ll need to paint from up a roof perhaps. Or from your car. Or in the earliest or in the latest hours to find great beauty. But truly, opportunities for landscape painters are everywhere to be found.
And you can always create trips to your favorite landscapes to paint it.
