we had a big picnic with lots of friends by the river over the weekend,being my social self,i choose to observe it all from a little distance,made sure i had some grub though!
you are making me blush rene. although i'm certainly not unhappy with it,there are plenty of things that could be better but that's just me!it is indeed a nice memory of a lovely day....thanks mate!
Hi Ed! i wasn't sure about the composition at first, the tree was to dominant,so i cut left and bottom it was a 9x12" before,i think it works better now...
Rob, I think in every painting lies failure. That makes you do the next one. So if you have already painted the perfect one, there is no need to continue. I meant that this painting is coherent.
Hiya Rob Thanks for calling by. I see you have been really busy out there in lovely Wales, capturing the glorious Spring. The day you painted this was my Birthday, so a great day for a party. You must be very diciplined, going off to paint whilst everyone was jolly and eating, but at least they fed you too. Cheers. A

Cool composition, and great color.
Hi Ed!
i wasn't sure about the composition at first,
the tree was to dominant,so i cut left and bottom
it was a 9x12" before,i think it works better now...
good luck with your show!
Great Painting, Rob and I think it´s perfect the way it is.
hi Stefan,i appreciate your vote of confidence,but i have to dissagree,if only for the fact of keeping improving
Rob, I think in every painting lies failure. That makes you do the next one. So if you have already painted the perfect one, there is no need to continue. I meant that this painting is coherent.
ofcourse you are right Stefan,
from painting to painting we go
trying to understand and get better.
and btw,if i had painted the perfect picture,i would like to do many more!
painting,especially plein air,what else is nicer...only a few things...
Got some real nice contrast going here .
The tree makes for a nice dramatic shape.
thanks Bill
i've got this little voice in my head when i'm out there,it repeats,contrast,contrast!
must be yours...

i was lucky with the composition,
it was simply the best spot to paint
Hiya Rob
