something new


last night I watched artist videos on Jerry art-o-rama site. I then got out a 16x20 canvas and tried to make a pic. I watched how Wilson Bickford did skies. Then I did one. Then watched how he did clouds. Did some. Then grass..... Then a tree. The road an the person are me so Wilson is off the hook. I learned some interesting techniques. I will definitely work on the clouds/grass and trees. They were easy and usable in my plein aire outings with "OOPS". Thanks for looking, Dean

Lookin' good, Dean! I'm honored that you put some of my techniques into practice. I also browsed through your blog and am impressed with your work.
Painting boils down to experimenting to find what works for YOU, then practicing it. Keep up the good work!
