I'm guessing the scrapping gives the magic to this in my narrow-minded unartistic analysis.

I think that's been my approach lately. Only because I'd get to a point where I would start to tickle. This isn't watercolor baby. Less worry about overdoing it. If I did, oh well. The process was fun.<br /><br />Dive,<br />I'm having fun. The skewed perspective is probably due to the skewed photo. Those spring greens were a challenge to mix! This one was all about texture. Trying to capture water without worrying about smoothness. Hoping that would come through somehow.neetzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08328078244870157157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6912024698482592423.post-28675258006308519052009-09-09T05:14:45.308-07:002009-09-09T05:14:45.308-07:00Love it, love it, LOVE it, Neetzy!

The composition is amazing, especially the slightly skewed perspective and your textures are just breathtaking.<br /><br />Keep on having fun!divehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12938980502783421961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6912024698482592423.post-54481519687008426242009-09-09T05:12:22.290-07:002009-09-09T05:12:22.290-07:00My daughter just showed me a You-Tube of Modest Mo...My daughter just showed me a You-Tube of Modest Mouse and Vampire Weekend. I can just picture you happily painting and scraping away to this music. But it's such an idyllic, peaceful scene!

I'd paint, then then the thick layers dry for a few days, then paint a while. I think it took me at least three visits to the studio because I wanted the underlayers to show through. <br /><br />Heather,<br />Thanks. I'll check him out. I always learn so much from other people's work. Yours included. <br /><br />Shazza, <br />Obliteration is fun. I have been obliterating older paintings that I wasn't quite happy with as well. Stay tuned.neetzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08328078244870157157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6912024698482592423.post-56478350322910410342009-09-08T07:49:42.509-07:002009-09-08T07:49:42.509-07:00Very pretty Anita...obliterate some more!Very pretty Anita...obliterate some more!Shazzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02196666013653201878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6912024698482592423.post-43701375086128541372009-09-08T06:58:04.155-07:002009-09-08T06:58:04.155-07:00Anita, I just watched a video clip about an artist...Anita, I just watched a video clip about an artist whom I know on the vineyard...it showed his palette which is strikingly similar to the colors in this painting. I think you might be interested to see more of his work if you don't already know him, Allen Whiting. I think this link will take you to the video and you can see more of his work at the North Water Gallery, MV, http://www.plumtv.com/videos/in-the-studio-allen-whiting/index.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6912024698482592423.post-13962114147791849632009-09-07T17:26:05.923-07:002009-09-07T17:26:05.923-07:00What a cool painting!

And I like the idea of you listening to subversive music while painting a traditional scene in a maniacal manner.
