If you ever get tired of pastels ("not bloody likely!" as Monty Python might say :D), you'll have a fallback art medium.Jala Pfaffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01186623108399217523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2569842595006112796.post-46517078726581353042009-04-27T21:01:00.000-04:002009-04-27T21:01:00.000-04:00Hi Donna,
Thanks for the vote of confidence.
You ...Hi Donna,<br /><br />Thanks for the vote of confidence.<br />You are observant about the underpainting. Yes you need to be bold and loose with an underpainting. I feel it's easy to tighten up but not loosen up once the tone is set. That is the struggle I am having with the oil underpaintings.<br />Enjoy some painting freedom!<br />Lloriann signorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16738796573576452724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2569842595006112796.post-73213765580490131002009-04-27T20:57:00.000-04:002009-04-27T20:57:00.000-04:00Hi Karen!

It's funny when I was in NY I could see where he developed the color for his water. that river is VERY different from mine.<br />I will try to write more about warmth and grey balance later.<br />Lloriann signorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16738796573576452724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2569842595006112796.post-62564479806702672012009-04-27T19:19:00.000-04:002009-04-27T19:19:00.000-04:00This painting is going to be a beauty! Thanks so ...This painting is going to be a beauty! Thanks so much for showing your underpainting. I can see that I need to be much bolder with my colors - I can always gray them down but trying to make them more intense doesn't usually work for me.Donna Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17129186863757507990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2569842595006112796.post-13095638197383091042009-04-27T15:16:00.000-04:002009-04-27T15:16:00.000-04:00I am inside too today...don't tell.
Thanks for re...I am inside too today...don't tell.<br /><br />Thanks for reminding me of all of those Hudson River painters. Gifford's work was so good to look more closely at...<br /><br />Retaining warmth and yet graying down at the same time...challenging to balance that. Will you write more as you think about this?Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02657187768183498744noreply@blogger.com
