    This certainly does fit here, Skylar. This is stunning! Has such a wonderful sense of realism and motion. I look at that creek and it feels like it’s moving. Beautiful, rich colors and values, too. Really a treat to see this one!

        I am fascinated by light and how different artists use it in their works.
        This one is, dare I say, AWESOME.
        So many different areas stand out because of it.

        Light, both reflecting off and shining through to the stream bed.
        The brilliant highlights on the “shack”, the chartreuse grasses and the subdued and dark shadowy areas all work together fabulously.
        Great job!

        Jenna – Thank you! You have pointed to some things which I painted, but didn’t expect anyone would notice.

        Jo Thanks so much! Some of my personal subjects, also!

        Chaffee – I am humbled,to say the least. This little painting has all the elements which you noted. I didn’t think anyone would realize those subtleties. This, I think, is because you are a photographer, and by inclination, see those things. Early on, I started photographing things I wanted to paint, and by doing so ,became a descent photographer. It is all in the Beholder’s eye – isn’t it?!
