Great observation.  Yes, I do use too much white.  Will take your suggestion and work on it.

Hi Kathy.  It goes vertical when you hit the "view full size" button.  Welcome to the site.  Kathy, I looked at your 3 paintings you posted and the one thing I am noticing in your work is that you overdo mixing with white.  Try tinting or lightening colors with a lighter color of the same hue before using white.  When you do lighten a color with white, mix some warm color back into it so it does not get pale looking or chalky.  Anyway, again, welcome to the site.
