It's Monday night, and I am going to share the painting I have done since last Tuesday. In other words, this is an exhibit of work pre-class critique - gasp!
First, a re-view of last week's work:
The lake needed additional work as did the foreground. Here it is now.
I think the tractor needs to be "grounded" as it appears to be floating. I really wanted the foreground "hay field" to be more yellow. I thought I had it but then I toned it down too much. This painting reminds me of the "Four Little Peppers and How They Grew" in style. It lacks that free-floating sense that many watercolors have - fluidity. This seems more heavily worked to my eye. Over-worked?
I'll have to wait and listen carefully to tomorrow's critique.
