Really beautiful and love the misty woods at the back!

Thank you Sandy :) I am still struggling with finding my style. Some artists mix colors in advance and others mix as they go. Some use magic white while others use under painting like Kevin Hill and still others use acrylics for under painting. Some paint in a day and others in a week or two. Really struggling finding what fits me but imagine maybe others can relate with that. Do you have any suggestions?

Still haven't found my style yet! Love Kevin Hill !

Love the subtle tones used here........Nice job Happy !

Thank you Terry :)

After a quick skim of your profile from the first paintings to this, it's pretty clear you've already developed your own style along the way. I'm blown away when I look at your first paintings and compare to your most recent. It really looks like you've taken the teachings and elevated them to a higher state by adding elements and details that are important to you as a person. This added personality (especially its effectiveness within the painting) is almost the definition of a style. Accepting who you are, and what that personality is, is possibly the hard part (for all of us as humans/artists). I really enjoy this piece, looking forward to seeing more.

Thank you so much for your kind words :) your detailed perspective has kindled a great deal of thought on this subject of finding style and has greatly increased my confidence with painting. What a wonderful post :) thanks again.

This is a standout. Beautifully done. I love the subtle tones. It looks like early morning to me. A very professional painting with a confident style.

Thank you Barbara :)
