Painting in the mountains- continued

28 04 2006

On that same mountain excursion I went back again to the beautiful orchard I had attempted capturing on that first afternoon. This time I selected a different view for my 9×12″ canvas, using a great red barn as a focal point. I’m very happy with the way this one developed:

If I make any adjustments, they will be very little. I love this scene so much I decided to do a larger version in the studio. Here it is, still in the “blocking in” stage, using my little plein air as a reference:

Jan,

Thanks so much for your nice comment! I am always happy to meet a fellow painter and will be checking out your blog for sure. Thank you for the link too! I haven’t quite taken the time to really figure out how to work the blog links and other features. I need to get on that so that I can reciprocate.

Best wishes,
Jennifer
