Couple More

Just having fun :)  Happy labour day!

Seascape


Mountain Lake




Musings:
- a beginner starts with a smaller canvas.  Great tip I heard on a youtube vid, beginners or new artist like to choose the biggest canvas and create a mediocre piece.  Not to say a beginner can't but with more practice when the time comes for the big piece it'll definitely show the skills and work learned.

Peaceful Valley

Not very proud of this one.  My foliage is getting more lousy.

Back Again

Home renos. Recoup. Recovering cold.  Now back in action.  Can I do one a day? We shall see :)




So doing these are making me want to paint on a canvas!  (But I'm still recovering from a cold..)

Quiet Stream



Really enjoyed doing this paint.  When I was in high school I did a series of paintings in the theme of "Journeys."
So same issues depth.  I need to look into solving this issue.
Actually for this and the previous painting I have experimented with different brushes.  They definitely bring out the texture of the different elements.

Winter Mist



All wintery scene, another challenging painting since 3 colours were used and it was hard to show depth.  I may just fiddle around with some contrasting colours to see if they flow into the painting.  To be continued...
(Edit) was faster than I thought I'd take to revisit. :)
