House in the Trees




This is the finished version of the painting I put on last time. I adjusted some of the values especially in the roof of the building. It was too light in the center of the painting. I like this better but .... it is always scary to change a watercolor because you can never go back to the way it was before you changed it.


I have also finished a tree painting. It is a little odd but, was fun to try. There is a tree in my backyard that was the inspiration for the trunk. I did not do my backyard tree justice but I tried. Of course there is a flat long wooden fence behind my yard tree. I made up the field and such behind this painting. I seem to really like fields. Most of the things I want to paint seem to be field oriented.


I must do more blogging. I find out how to do something and then I don't get in here and blog for days and by then I have forgotten what I learned ....
