My plein air group went to a beautiful location in Brookhaven that we've been lucky enough to paint at before. It is a huge piece of property with reeds and water from the river, a white barn, several other buildings, alpacas, geese, and this wonderful view over the fence to this meadow. I didn't get a chance to paint it the last time, so that was what I was determined to paint yesterday. I thing I used just about everything in that foreground grass...some salt, spattering, resist, dry brush, and lots of layers. I really like the way it came out. This is 7 x 10.
JOAN! JOAN ! JOAN! THAT MEADOW IS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANTLY AND BEAUTIFULLY DONE! BRAVA! BRAVA!! BRAVA! AWESOME TEXTURES, COLORS AND INTEREST! LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteThis and the one before are so beautiful. So neat to git out and paint!
ReplyDeleteYou should be very proud of this one, Joan. I think its a beautiful painting...love the texture with the spattering?? I'm not familiar with this but it works!!! Love it!!
ReplyDeleteAnd well you should, Joan. Gorgeous work. I find myself wishing I was sitting in the house there, windows open, dry breezes soughing through the field grasses...
