(10,152 posts)Leave it alone. Cant believe its taken me so long to get here.
the one question every artist has i 'when am i done'
the only class where they even ask it is conservation.
and sometimes the best answer there is- before you begin.

You capture all the elements of nature in your paintings. Your rendering of sunlight and shadows give your landscapes a vastness and visual distance that create great depth. The way you create shadows and sunshine by unseen and seen clouds obscuring the sun in some places and not in others is truly inspired. I like the softness of your work as if the air is slightly diffused by humidity or the atmosphere is hazy. Youve mastered the myriad light elements and influence on nature, whether on the clouds, the horizon, waterways and the closer objects and plants. Your paintings are exquisite and beautiful in the atmospheric style you create so well. Its not just your subject thats compelling. Its how you render it. The actual brush strokes themselves and the way you blend the colors you choose are excellent and demand attention. Its inspirational.
