The second one was mostly p and golden green, and it was okay, but then I added indigo and raw sienna and liked it better. The first one started with p and gold green very wet, but after blotting I mixed in the other two colors and I am hopeful for it.
I like the first one. The trunk kinda looks like a palm tree. Good start on the second.
ReplyDeleteOh, yes! I really like the first one. It's so alive. And the brushwork is so active and purposeful. This is great. The second one has the feel of a gentle drizzle in the forest on a grey early winter day. Is this part of a series with the greenish summer swampy one? I rather like that idea—this could be your "haystacks."
ReplyDeleteInteresting contrast between these two. The first one just bristles with those active brushstrokes. The second one has a calm soothing demeanor created by the background. I like the variation in the patterns on the second one—all different but they all work together to create the mood.
