What I found most challenging was the background where fog meets/overlaps the horizon line--and, working 'live', every time I looked out it had shifted..Jan Yates, SCA, Canadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14699517511325366933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2030124522253662255.post-75620165672376323682010-11-29T03:03:47.574-08:002010-11-29T03:03:47.574-08:00Wow you did it! this is some great painting! captu...Wow you did it! this is some great painting! capturing a misty atmosphere is not easy and you have done it beautifully. I also like the composition and the format of two canvases together, the size of the works is important too so that the viewer can feel as if they are a part of the scene too. The best bit to me is the colours you have used which can give a great deal of trouble yet you have balanced the warms and cool greys and browns together very well.Caroline Simmillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09598525698486576546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2030124522253662255.post-22602074075187174352010-11-28T20:40:49.817-08:002010-11-28T20:40:49.817-08:00hey Katherine, i needed to hear that so THANK YOU!...hey Katherine, i needed to hear that so THANK YOU!I am -like a lot of us- intrigued by fog and the intangible and I consciously wanted to approach the painting process differently, which I did, and so far am embracing this direction *but always feels so great to hear ayes from others!!!!!..Jan Yates, SCA, Canadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14699517511325366933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2030124522253662255.post-64535859986455976922010-11-27T20:10:43.364-08:002010-11-27T20:10:43.364-08:00This is absolutely GORGEOUS!!
