6x6 o/b Out in the studio early this morning to rework the "rural scene" I changed the path to a stream and added more lighting to the trees and grass.I painted the light area around the cow to make it more of a focal point. "Light against dark, dark against light" This has been a real exercize for me because landscapes are not really a practiced subject for me. I love them and am working to learn them. Just noticed the purple mountain and how purple that is!! So I am going to lighten it with some soft blue but not putting it back up...enough already!!My favorite time to paint is early in the morning. When it is quiet and I have had my coffee.My studio is outside so I have a few steps from my house to get to it. I think there is something very intimate in the smaller works having always painted quite large. Painting usually everyday and always in the morning I have chosen the title Morning Paintings.
