Your art lesson continues with this 30x40 oil painting. The canvas is now covered with the inherent values of the major areas--there is no true focal point, although the lightest area near the gate, which is painted with the Warm Box of the Color System. This contrast of temperatures gives a distinct depth to the work, with the foreground sunlit areas contrasting nicely with the distant appearing hues from the Cool Box.When I work on a large canvas like this one, it takes a bit longer to get it all together. Although it is further along sitting on the easel behind me, I enjoy seeing it at this earlier stage, knowing I was on the right track....
More tomorrow!
