Countryside Oval

I decided not to paint the background hills in that purple ish color Bob had. I went for browns instead. I like my painting tho I think the land is too dark. I will work on some highlights later on after work.

Once againโ€ฆ the darn clouds. I know how to fix them this time to make them great. Iโ€™ll work on them tonight as well.

Looks good so far!

Hallo my Friend, Looks good so far. Good color selection. You Will Rock the clouds ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Thank you Sandy!! I will put the picture below the main one later on. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Thank you my friend! I will get those clouds to perfection at some point. I never really focused on them before. So I think itโ€™s time to perfect da technique and get them nice and fluffy! ๐Ÿ˜€

Super tree on the left :-)

Thanks Matt! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Fixed my clouds!!! โ˜๏ธโ˜๏ธโ˜๏ธ. I added few highlights but I donโ€™t think the picture renders them well. But I am happy with my sky! ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ˜€ I added some little daisies at the bottom of my big off canvas tree! ๐ŸŒผ๐ŸŒผ

Good Morning and Bonjour Nancy I think the clouds are softer now, which makes them look more lively. Top made๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐ŸŒผ

Bonjour Dirk! Thank you! I made my new clouds with a filbert brush. It worked beautifully!

I Never did it with a filbert but now i will try it . Mostly i did it with the Fanbrush or with the corner of a small flat brush . With my small formats, I often have the problem that the clouds get to jagged with the fanbrush

Well done Nancy. I really like the foreground and the dead tree in front and the fixed version really was worth it. Regarding the background hills I would like to give you a tip. If you have a blue sky, it is always good to add some blue to them, it shows more distance.
But well done overall. Sorry if I should have missed some of your paintings, I have been a bit under pressure due to the job recently.

Thx Tom! No worries! I have been more busy than usual as well. We can done always be here! ๐Ÿ˜‰

And thank you for the tip!! Forgot to add that to my reply! ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Looks terrific and the clouds loook softer!! Great job!

Thank you so much Sandy! I used my filbert brush. I will use it more for clouds in the future for sure!

You are an inspiration. The grasses you painted along with the flowers are superb. Foreground tree looks amazing and most importantly those crisscrossing branches did not blend together!

Awww! ๐Ÿฅน Thank you so much KAS!
