Hey Brian! Good morning. Great to see you posting It's really good to take a break though when you feel you need it.
This is a beautiful painting. Love the beautiful colors. With all your experience and knowledge all you need now is a little time to settle down and get it all together.
I find the post behind the tractor is too long and and too light and taking to much attention and the eye out of the picture. I suggest you tone it down or take it out as the black exhaust pipe brings the eye up to the house over and back down again. A great painting and Happy painting.
Thanks Julie and Ralph for your comments. Yes, Ralph, I too noticed when posting the light 'post' is dead center and demands too much attention. It was meant to be a stack on the tractor but maybe doesn't read that way. I may remove it entirely. Thanks for the tip. Brian
Hi Brian, i had been missing seeing your work and am glad to see you post one today. I wanted to enquire but hessitant letting the inspiration within you nudge you on its own Love the balanced color here, your subject paintings are normally very happening i find this one very quiet, probably after the series of quiet winter ones...a very reflective one. love it.
A little 16x20" done today. Comments welcomed. Brian

ReplyDeleteGreat stuff Brian. I love that horizontal hit of that brighter green on the left side. I wouldn't mind seeing more of it!
