Artist Note
I have been back painting
landscapes recently
landscapes recently
and am once again reminded
of how cool the shadow colors
are in comparison to
the same colors in the sunlight.
of how cool the shadow colors
are in comparison to
the same colors in the sunlight.
The difference between the green
growth in the light
compared to the same color
in the shadow was HUGE!
The blue of sky comes down
and casts its color over everything.
It is so obvious with water
showing blues in the shadow
Not as easy to see
the same cool cast on the green.
You have to learn to look for it!
You have to learn to look for it!
I send prayers for everyone
in the path of Dorian
remembering also
that animals are voiceless...
that animals are voiceless...
they need help too.
Looks like the kind of scene I would love to walk right into, Julie.

ReplyDeleteHello Blanche. happy you like it. Hope you enjoyed the summer and are feeling great.

I always enjoy your beautiful artwork. (I was robinlstudio on Instagram, but now I follow you on Facebook) I also hope that people will not leave their pets behind during the hurricane. Pets are family members!
ReplyDeleteJulie what a beautiful painting. I love it. The bright yellows just make it that more eye catching. Yes those in the path of Dorian certainly need our prayers - especially those in the Bahamas.
ReplyDeleteso much energy and movement to the water :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice oil painting and so peaceful place !!!
ReplyDeleteI would love to have a picnic right on that spot in your painting. I'm crazy about "the woods" since I grew up in a state that has many woods. Your description of the cooler colors in the shadows is such a great reminder.
