Once more from the northern most state

This one I think I managed to get some depth into and I even think it kind of looks like the train is moving. Most of this picture was painted with a few flatbrushes. The only round brush used was a rigger to pint some shadow and the wheels. The flatbrush is quickly becoming a favorite. I can see why so many people like it.

Another from Alaska

Here's another one from Alaska. I got ran out of time an couldn't finish the foreground trees, but I don't really think it matters. (I do think Bob Ross would have me go back and finish them.) I think i got some nice layering of the pine trees and of the mountains in the background, but the picture is definitely lacking something. I think, though, that I am getting better.

Alaska

Well, I thought I had a great handle on this one. I was painting great, or thought so, until I got to the grass and plants in around the lake. At that point i think i got a little to literal for this painting. I had what I though was a really nice painting going. Some really nice mountains, some nice pine forrest in front of them then the train, and, blammo. I don't know what happened. I just got way to literal. Well, I still like this one. I't trying to push mysel to paint more loosely and just have to keep at it. Hope you all enjoy it.
