Best Of

So happy this piece came together smoothly. I learned so much from this one! I’m using it at the image for my invitations for my show in January. Titled “Caught” 18x24”, oil on panel

I finally got started with Mark’s method… got my paints mixed and working through values. 
Looking for other sets of eyes on where I’m missing it. I am concerned that my burnt umber is coming through to strong. I have tried to tone it down but don’t want to blend too much. Otherwise I’m having fun. 

Hi All

Here is a little 10x10cm painting, based on a hike in Mittenwald, Bavaria, just across the Austrian border.

Please share your thoughts!

I tried something different this time 
just to practice .
I kind of like the way it turned out ..

Ive not been on here much as I did not psint a lot . Getting back into the groove of things ..

I’ve tried following the tutorial and I’m not unhappy with it . I framed it too .
I find this way of painting challenging without a tutorial but I’m planning on doing more of them and perhaps buy the still life tutorial online .
So that I’m getting the hang of it .

A finish of my new puppy. He is now 3 time this size. 12 x 9 oil on linen.
I used som earth tones and very limited color. A teeny bit of yellow, blue and ac.

Here's a better photo. The colours are warmer in sunlight and that glare at the top has gone.

I've removed that rock formation. 

Still a bit of work to do on the foreground snow and bushes at lower right.

This is the latest in my series, The Mountain. 

Under all that snow is a rough track that (in about an hour-and-a-half of very hard walking in summer) takes you to near the summit. You couldn't do this walk in snow without breaking something and/or freezing to death. The cloud marks the edge of the escarpment and hidden beneath it is the the city and coast which are quite picturesque.  But I was glad the cloud moved in.

I got the canvas covered tonight so thought I'd ask for feedback.

Thanks for looking and commenting.

Local Gallery show.  Won Best of Show.  There are still a few changes I'm going to make. But pleased with the award.
