an other Geoff Kersey tutorial. This one had a lot of challenges, the figures, the shadows, the weeds and bushes, me messing up the sky, smudging things etc…. Every tutorial has big challenges for me, I am painting for +7 months now. I am going to try and stretch the paper next time. I will probably do this one again in a few months or so. I had to paint the birds to cover up some splatters

Painting is not everything in life - but without painting everything is nothing!The long shadows in the mid-ground suggest a low light source behind the building to the left. The backside of that building would be in shadow and cast a shadow over the vegetation behind it and onto the road. Be sure to make your light source and shadows consistent.

it is not in the original tutorial so I did not include this, but I was thinking the same thing when painting… I will paint this again (hopefully without the smudging, splattering etc…) and I will adjust some things
for now it was just about learning some techniques. thnx for the adviceThis is beautiful. I like the sharpness.

I think the birds are a serendipitous happening for the painting. I think the birds really act as a completion and kind of the icing on the cake. I think without the birds it wouldn’t seem as complete.
Only 7 months painting? That’s about the same time I’ve been learning to use watercolor. You’re doing beautifully.
