I tried my hand at landscapes and I find them so hard to paint. I know how I want them to look and they always turn out overworked. I like all of your three attempts, the last one is fabulous! The colours are pure and fresh, and the overhanging leaves are perfect. Funny that you changed the bend in the road to the right. :)
Hi, Blaga, please be kind to yourself. You're a hard worker, but never be tough on you. Another artist said, "It's just only a paper!" Yes, indeed. I will enjoy painting. Otherwise, my brush will never dance on paper. Best wishes, Sadami
This is a very common sight in the countryside. But turning it into a painting requires skill and trust me, you have it. Keep painting.
That's how it's done ! LOVE how you used purple to create the shadow, really beautiful !
Hola Blaga: Hermosos trabajos, pero el primero es impactante por
los colores intensos de las sombras!! Saludos
