Not Quite Spring

Ninoum 24 Jul 2023

I waited a very long time to paint this one. I knew the challenge ahead. It didn’t disappoint.

I almost got into several mud battles with this mountain. I am normally good at controlling that aspect but today, I got to sharpen my skill to the max! Lol!!!

This is # 197!!! 😎

I like this one a lot-the mountain is steep and towering and the woods are very dark!

Beautiful!

Looks good overall. Well done.

Great job Nancy. Great depth here.

Gorgeous job! Great depth and your mountain is super!

Thank you Lazer! 😊 I did this one on a 16”x20” and I thought all along I would run out of space. I am glad to see it didn’t through off my layering & perspective.

Thank you Tom! Have you done this one yet?

Thank you my friend Tomi! β˜€οΈ As I explain to Lazer, I really thought I thru my perspective out the window for a long time. It’s only after looking at the picture that I felt a sense of relief. Lol!

Thank you very much Sandy! That mountain is something else to paint. Bob does it so easily! But it was a great exercise for improving my mountain skills.

you're getting so good at conveying direction of light! I love the drama it adds. Stunning as always.

Thank you bunches Jeffth! 😊 I always love the way Tom direct his light and the effect it gives to his paintings. I started to pay more and more attention of those important details. I also picked up some valuable tips from Kevin Hill's tutorial on that particular topic. I use at least 3 maybe 4 different colors to create that lighting effect. On my evergreens here, I had the dark, a mid tone and one highlight color. It really changes the whole scene.

Super painting πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ

Thank you my friend! πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺπŸ˜ƒ
