After letting it sit awhile, I decided to simplify the background on this piece. I think it works a lot better; hope you do. Check out the 'not finished' version on my March 26 blog entry, just below the little boat. click title in this email to get to blog.
I got some great advice from an instructor who said "If you question something about your piece, you probably already know the answer..." At times, I ask hubby Phil to take a peek and "...tell me, do you think the color is too dark? Is the tree too small? Should the background be brighter?.."
Before he even answers (smart guy, he's always very diplomatic) I realize I already know the answer is YES. It's hard to give up what you've already done, but the picture is telling me it needs a change - time to grab the brush and delve in with a fresh eye and bold strokes.
So, this one is done. It better be, I've added to the website.
Thanks for sharing my blog.
