I made an attempt touse my brush a different way- the right way. I felt I have been painting by pushing the paint into places and overworking areas. In this painting I tried to lay the paint on top of the paint underneath. I want to have bolder brushwork and use the benefits of oil paint to enhance the aesthetic qualities in the painting and not recreate a photo image of the scape. I was not successful in this piece but these things come in time with much practice. Thus far, I do feel I have progressed and I cant wait to see what the second half will yield.

This was in MultoPuciano. So many tourists walking around. I realize I have been losing my color through my use of white; I am anxious to try to crrect this problem.Painting 18
A quick study that same day- i feel if I lighten the value of the top of the mountains and fix some temperatures this can be much better.
Painting 15
I felt very good about this painting although I do feel the values of the mountains can go lighter in the background. This classes session was on trees.
