One BAD, One Good.

The first one is obviosly the bad one. It turned out carrots again. I loosened up a lot on the second one. It turned out much better. It did mean changing the picture a bit, but I think I kept true to what the inspiration picture is.

This is another picture where I feel like I've learned a lot by painting it. It was hard for me not to try to recreate the painting as I saw it, but once I changed the look of what I was doing, it made loosening up a lot easier.

Utah Canyon 3


I think I'm making progress. I've removed the snow and made it a more spring or summer scene. This is also my third attempt at getting the striation and shadowing on the cliffs. I am happy with the way the cliff on the right looks like it is so much further back than the one on the left.
