Remember seeing this 16×20″ mess first layer?
I think it will be a good one. I combined about 4 photos on Photoshop Junior* to see if my version of this scene was better than reality and concluded that yes, indeedy it is, or it will be if I can execute it with excellence.
Let’s go!
I am choosing to not show the beginning photos for a couple of reasons.
- I don’t want any input as to whether or not I have chosen the correct elements in the correct sizes and placements. Sometimes I do want input; this time I do not; that could change. . .
- I want you all to judge the painting on its own merits rather than whether or not I can accurately copy a photograph.
Phooey. I can see 3 shapes that look wrong right now. “Wrong” in that they don’t look fully natural or believable, because I am only judging this painting of one of Tulare County’s pretty places on its own merits, not while looking at any photos.
*Photoshop Elements is the “easy” version of Photoshop.
