Carol Marine's Painting a Day - "Clearwater Creek 2"

CAROL MARINE'S PAINTING A DAY   6/23/15
 "Clearwater Creek 2" - 8x8in. -  click to bid

This is pre-posted while I'm on vacation. I won't be able to ship anything (books or paintings) until (at the latest) July 8th. My apologies!


This is the second one from Clearwater Creek. I painted it from a photo I took a little earlier in the day - around 8am. You can see the shadows are longer, and there's more dark in the grasses and trees. But over-all things are darker, and I think that's because of the photo. I especially didn't get as much life/color in the creek bottom. BUT, I feel like I designed the whole thing a little better, and arranged the rocks more artfully. And there is more contrast where the sky reflects in the water.


I would probably learn a TON if I painted this one over and over about 100 more times. Like Monet and his water lillies.
