 Oh!  A tree I have missed! How is it possible? It's a really charming misty tree.

Always best to be in a mist vagueness is a virtue.

Splendid. This is the kind of simplicity
that I want to achieve. We are surrounded by
beautiful scenes ~ right in our own backyard.
Just let the weather define the mood. Wunderbar!!!

I'm glad you like this one,I'm not clever enough to make this kind of simplicity work very often; as a matter of fact every fresh attempt at painting is a battle.

Thanks for the kind words and the faves Richard

Thanks. I'd like to do something like this again but simplicity is difficult, it's as much a matter of finding the right subject as anything else.

Yes, it's particularly difficult when one is trying to be simple! It's often best when it takes you unawares.

I never thought acrylics could look so ethereal. Wonderful display of skill and use of colors, I like the way the blues used in the background give you the feeling of depth and manage to capture so well the looks and feeling of a misty landscape.

JohnPatience In reply to Feidhelm [2010-10-25 16:57:14 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for your thoughtful comment. Acrylic is very versatile and as always it's our skills which limit us rather than the materials we work with.

I love the two painting in different techniques...this one is my favorite...it gives me more the impression of mist...

JohnPatience In reply to Astera-T [2010-10-18 15:16:18 +0000 UTC]

I agree with your choice but I enjoy experimenting with pastels (stay tuned to this station for further examples) so I decided to post both efforts.

Thanks for your comment, always appreciated, and for the fave too of course.

Did you paint from life, or did this come out of your mind's eye?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

JohnPatience In reply to Jumbi [2010-10-16 17:30:59 +0000 UTC]

I wish I could say that I sat there like a true artist and painted from life, but in fact I took a photograph and painted it from that. I find it much more comfortable and productive to work in my studio.

Thank you for the fave.

Ah, I mostly work from photographs too. It's just so detailed that I figured you must have been there looking up constantly haha.
