Oil on Canvas
24 x 18
Have you all been paying attention? If you have this may look familiar. Back in late February there was a study for this. It's finally done, I think, and I've gotten around to posting it. I'm pretty happy with this. It may not be the bright, sunny autumn day you usually get, but that wasn't what I was after besides those are way too common. I was after something more moody. The day was misty at best. It looked like it was about to pour actually so the day of painting outdoors was put on hold. Instead I took a little stroll in the mud up this little stream fully expecting to get really wet. I escaped merely damp and the camera showed no ill effects. Anyway that's the story of what I was trying to do. Hopefully I did more than just give a weather report. Funny thing is that by the time I got home it was bright and sunny, not a cloud in the sky.

I really love your mist filled paintings. They have a ethereal feel to them. It makes me want to go forth and explore.
Thanks. You've managed to say the exact right thing once again. Strangely enough in just the last few days I've pulled this one out again. I think there are a few little brush strokes that still need to be added. Needs some reflected lights here and there.
If there is a need of little touch ups, I haven't noticed. I think it's perfect as is.
Just little things that probably won't be very noticeable in a photo, but they're still bothering me.
