    Hey thanks again!

    So nineteen twenties or twenty twenties :-D There are so many fantastic old paintings, it’s hard to know who was the master behind each of them, even just among the impressionists, like Adam Smith that I stumbled onto once.

    Yeah the green is bushes, mostly. I used two photos to try to get it right, yep I’m very new to oil painting!

    I’m on a new painting, but maybe I’ll go back and make another try (it’s the fourth already) when I feel I ‘get’ those trees a bit better. Trees are hard sometimes!

    It’s mostly a try to just exercise, but I do like the setup/composition so I probably feel it worthwhile to make it better. Or so I hope.

    Thanks again for all kind criticism and hugs all along!

      Def were some comments too cause you dun-did good =)! But foreals, you can always come back to stuff and never forget it cause you’re walking on the backs of so many if you know what I mean? Like you can always do studies and try to corner what you like so much about them and integrate it into your own approach. You’re gunna be a master this time next year, trust =)!
