11x15
Started another painting of some little houses along the back bays here.
I made a tactical error right off the bat, painting the shady side (the light is coming form the right) of the buildings too early; they're too gray, maybe too dark, and maybe confusing. If I had waited till later, I think they'd be more integrated. But I'm going to keep going because 1) maybe I'll come up with a "fix"; or 2) maybe it won't be so noticeable when the painting is done.

Not sure what I love the most - the buildings and how the angles are so interesting or the variety you painted in the grasses! Both are gorgeous and I didn’t think anything was too dull in the shadows.
I like it! If the shading was lighter, would it still look like shade without the contrast? Not on my monitor ;o)
So far just amazing. The painter's journey -- so complex.
