thank you Sharon. it's acrylic I am using for the first time. It's very different from watercolors which I've been using. This was my first painting using acrylics.

Hi Jane.  I was actually not being critical of any part of this wonderful painting ... I admire it very much because of its subtle harmonies.  By "tonal", I mean that you painted the elements in terms of their darkness and lightness and mostly in middle values, while foregoing the high chroma  contrasts of the impressionist look.  Your painting has an "understated" effect that you would expect from a more tonal piece.  Actually, this is my favorite painting of the workshop so far. :))

Thank yo so much Michael for your comments. I really appreciate criticism and hopefully learn from them. I did intend on making the building suttle yet I wanted to emphasize the light coming from the distance. Having said that I think the dome is lighter than it looks in this photo. By tonal do you mean value?
