Description
I'm am experimenting with painting landscapes, so I searched deviantart for a suitable image to practice from. "Cabage Fields" by Jumm (jim callum) was a great example because it had a nice composition and was relatively simple. I printed it black and white so I could create my own color palette. I tried my best, and this is my first acrylic landscape based on an image. I think I did pretty good!Scanning it was probably the hardest problem. The painting was probably around 18x11 and my scanner isn't quite that big, so i scanned half and a time and attempted to photoshop it together. You maybe able to see the color difference.
Another thing I love about this image is it reminds me of one of my favorite movies - The Ring! Haunting and Heartbreaking <3

I like your style here! The palatte is very earthy, but not dull. I also like how you used red in the furrows of the field for definition - that worked very well.

i think that redness was caused when i scanned it, but it made a really nice effect i agree

You did a great job on it Katina. It looks like you have talent with those acrylics. You could photograph your painting wih a digital camera to get around the scanning issue.
Thanks for the credits,
Jim
