It was fun to do something more abstract. I did the underpainting in quinachronone (sp?) violet.
I like this a lot Elliot, very painterly and I love the hits of warmer green or ochre, lovely!! I would darken that spot of blue sky in the center a bit though, as your putting a light value into a darker context which makes it even lighter than it should be. Brian

ReplyDeleteI definitely see what you're saying about the blue. Thanks Brian!
ReplyDeleteI love this. You have really captured the apple blossoms that are so wonderful in our area this time of year.
