Some more on the dappled trees...


Despite the fact I genuinely don't expect this to turn out anywhere near good enough to ever see the light of day I am still plugging away at it!

Working here there and everywhere on it- most of it is still very rough. Really enjoying the challenge even if it is a bit self indulgant (should be spending time working on paintings that I can actually sell!!)... kind of reminds me of a jigsaw puzzle- I want to solve it, knowing it will be broken up and put back in it's box afterwards...

  1. Well I quite like it! Especially how the light is playing on the rear horse and rider! I have one in the stage of "should I waste my time? or chalk it up to experience?"!! The thing of it is...everyone has such different tastes in art, what you don't care for, someone else will think they can't live without it!

  3. Thank you both, I definitely don't think it will be a waste of time, as it will be worth doing just for everything I learn painting something so far out of my comfort zone! It's good to push ourselves to do difficult things I think, and quite refreshing to actually not to have high expectations of something either :-)
