paintalong

                              10x10
Another paint along with Paul George on YouTube.
I'm pretty much just amazed I got this far ... Definitely want to do it again with more soft edges and more "flow" in the foreground, which looks too choppy to me.
He advocates l8fting--a technique I rarely think of. Did it clumsily here but it is a great technique.
Maintaining the right degree of wetness really mattered at every stage of this.

Love this! I don’t think it looks chopping at all - just peeks of what’s to come - that gorgeous red against the snow! WOW!

Laura this is so pretty. That color of red is so perfect for turning a cold scene into a warmer one. Hope you have a wonderful start to April.
