For me personally, I love the complexity of the fracturing. Total involvement is needed. <br />When I have to paint fast, (because the clouds move) painting the direct approach is more suitable, BUT I can now try and fracture it from the study I did. Maybe I will do that today. I really value and enjoy your comments Roger.

But they also disappear here in October. Perhaps it will be different this year; the weather so far has certainly been unusual for us. <br />I just got back from painting the late afternoon light across a lake just a mile or so from my house. That long golden light is marvelous. <br />Your clouds are wonderful and the palette overall just so rich and interesting. <br />It was great to get in from painting and see your painting and read your post.
