Hello there,
I have started doing these little landscapes and have debated whether or not to put people in them. I am thinking that wihout, you can put yourself in the picture but maybe I am wrong and people would make it more appealing? PLease let me know what you think. Thanks,
Cheers, S.

only if you substitute one of the elements:
i.e a portion of a head for a sunflower
a person for a house
etc.
the idea being that you have a nice rythm now.
I would not break that up.

cheerful. I thought the flowers were sheep at first. you certainly already "suggest" people by the laundry etc. I say try out a few with animals--cavorting dogs or cats and/or hillsides of sheep...but little "folks" do not seem particularily necessary

This is great! Happy, interesting and just fun to look at. Makes me feel good! Dogs, cats, horses would be nice, also. Really don't need people unless you must have them in there.

A really terrific primitive style!

Thanks for your comments folks. I somehow thought people might not be necessary but it was always a little question always in the back of my mind.
Cheers, S.
