More Tasks in the Painting Workshop

When a painting doesn’t sell, I study it to discern what can be improved.

This painting has been with me for awhile, so I gave it some thought and then made a few subtle changes.

I don’t expect you to be able to discern what I did to it, but maybe after it is dry and scanned, I’ll show you the before and after scans.

This painting has also been with me for awhile. It took about 4 years to complete because of not having a clear vision of what it ought to be. The photos meant something to me, but just didn’t translate into a nice scene. While I thought it was finished, it hasn’t rung anyone else’s bell

More thought, more study, and some useful input from Trail Guy resulted in this version.

Again, I don’t expect you to be able to discern what has been improved, but now I am hopeful that the right customer will come along.

Next week I’ll show you a more drastic do-over as we contemplate those finishing tasks in the painting workshop.

  1. It’s really neat to see the ‘before’ and ‘after’ of each painting. Changing the lighting on the mountains makes them so much softer, to me. And the change in the one with the deer–love it! Now I know where the sun is at, LOL.

    • YEA, KRIS!! I’m impressed that you were able to discern the differences and appreciate you letting me know.
