FARM


This one done this afternoon 24x48"oil/canvas. Wanted to work in a narrower value range and try to capture a bit of the mood on this grey aftenoon....Suggestions welcome. Brian

  1. Man! are you on a roll or what. What ever your doing don't stop. This is just beautiful. Good going Brian. Of course I know you are not painting by yourself.

  2. Beautifully executed Brian though, for me, it lacks some of the "surprise" that you so often give. Since there's a narrower value range, maybe the surprise would be in shape, composition, temperature, texture, etc, but I'm not feeling it. It's lovely, but not as interesting or engaging to me as a lot of your other work.

  3. Thanks for your comments Ralph and Elliot.
    Elliot, I know, its a bit dead isn't it, but I'm trying lots of different things and pushing the envelope a bit. Thanks, Brian
