Paint along with Vladislav Yesileyev. And of course more work to do on it. Fun painting the palm trees though couldn’t get them dark enough the first time round.
Arches 280 cold press.
I know I am going to try to paint the roof grey. Will paint some yellow on a scrap and then paint colors over it to see what turns it grey like a metal roof. Thinking purple will. Maybe on the blue side. We shall see. Will posts my tests too.
The photo. Kind of nondescript right??! Really in Cortez FL but I have seen 100 like it in the low country.
Value sketch.
The sketch.
First wash
Second wash. Actually a lot lighter than the photo
Adding darks. Should be one shot but I never get them dark enough.
And more darks.
Done for now. Definitely needs work. Thinking lighten the small palm in the middle because the chair is the focal point NOT that palm.
Tomorrow right?!! Margaret xoxoxo

I really like it as it is now. Sometimes a work takes on a life and personality of its own. Maybe the palm is supposed to be the focus of attention.

Thanks Margaret. One thing about Adobe the photo editing software I use, is I can return to a previous version of the image I’m working on. Can you do something so that you can return to your current version if this painting?
