oil on 12x12" canvas board
After finishing the first one that took me hours and hours, I decided to try it the way Richard did...finish the second in just one hour. It was quite a challenge hearing the timer ticking away, but actually really fun. I may try that again.

Thanks, Nancy. Everybody has a moment.  The most important  is to keep on improving. Eager  to know what is the challenge for the new workshop though I can not do it. Good luck to you.

Hi Ningning. You are right about that vibrant blue mountain. I went back and looked at the original, and it is really darker and duller, but still could use some toning down as you suggested. Thank you for your always helpful and insightful comments. I always appreciate them. By the way, I just checked out last month's results, and was so happy to see how many people appreciated your incredible painting of the truck. Congratulations!

Thank you all so much for your special thoughts on this quick study. Your encouragement makes me want to do another just as quick.

Nancy, this is very beautiful though your mountain at the right side is bluer than mine. Why we like this saturate colour? I don't know. Michael suggest  me to grey it down a bit to make it more natural looking.  By the way, your detailed texture of the rocks and grass are very convincing and natural. Wonderful work!!!

Yes! Sometimes in not too good to think but to let everything flow to see what comes out! Easier said than done though....

I like the strokes that made up your rocks. Like the orange /ochre green blue  to the right. Like the slight light path next to the big pines leading me to the back even further. It's not busy. It's straight to the point. Like the looseness of your creativity expression on canvass. Thank you for posting. I like it.
