Workshop 33

I am a bit late entering Workshop33 but here it is. I could not get the red that Richard talked about so used Vermilion hue, do not know if it makes any difference. I started ok with the mountains I thought but had a bit of a difficulty finish the bottom part. This was a new experience for me and I thoroughly enjoyed. And Richard, I hope you do not mind "no sheep".

Comment by Steinunn Einarsdottir on July 25, 2014 at 21:30: Thank you Richard for your comments, I can see the foreground needed to be a lot darker but that was after all my intense work and by then I was getting a bit late to start again. Thank you again Richard and Michael for given yourself time to critique my painting, I really appreciate it.

Comment by Richard Robinson on July 25, 2014 at 10:51: - except, yes to what Michael said - needs more variety in the mountains angles.

Comment by Richard Robinson on July 25, 2014 at 10:49: :-) No sheep is fine. Looks like you didn't go dark enough with the darks in the foreground, but the mountains look great.

Comment by Steinunn Einarsdottir on July 23, 2014 at 7:44: Michael, thank you for your criticism and I do see your point but will leave it be for now.

Comment by Michael J. Severin on July 23, 2014 at 7:08: Hi Steinunn, Always be diligent for sameness in angles, lines, shapes, etc. All of your shapes and angles are alike in those 3 mountains. Also, be aware that your darkest darks would be in the foreground plane. Your foreground needs more strength to pull it forward.

Comment by Steinunn Einarsdottir on July 22, 2014 at 23:54: Thanks a lot Colleen. I hope you are having a great time on your travel.

Comment by Colleen McCafferty on July 22, 2014 at 16:40: Well done Steinunn! I love the mountains, their colours and the depth.

Comment by Steinunn Einarsdottir on July 21, 2014 at 21:17: Thank you for you comment Fay. Yes, I find it quite challenging to paint from someone else´s painting and tend to go off the track at times, like shows!.

Comment by Fay Thomson on July 21, 2014 at 18:52: You've done really well with this painting Steinnun. I agree with you that the foreground wasn't easy!

Comment by Steinunn Einarsdottir on July 20, 2014 at 21:26: Thank you so much Ann, where would we be without Richard! I learned a lot from this exercise.
