Todays picture is a continuation of one I posted a few days ago when I changed to the Artagain paper. (I also have learned that the Artagain paper can hold a lot more layers than I ever imagined) I have posted all three pictures here and what I wondered is how far is too far. What do you think?
For a while now I have felt that I have stopped too early and that I need to get more contrast between lights and darks into my pictures. So I set aside the second try for a day and then came back to it, primarily adding in more dark colors. I still don't have the secret of the foliage, but it definitely gives a fuller feeling than the previous pictures did. It also is a far far cry from the original one that really looks like a pale imitation, unless it was in the fog??
Thanks for stopping by and please leave your thoughts - should I go father?
This is much improved Nelvia but I think you need to do a bit more still. - Bummer, I know. I think that the tops of the rocks have to have harder edges - some of them look like they are made out of cotton - lol Also, a few horizontal lines in the water might help the perspective. Such a difficult subject! Good luck.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a difference from the original painting. With each addition you are getting more textures and darker colors. Nice!!!
