The wasted paint is piling up from left overs and scraped passages that, despite seeming to start off well just veer off into the ditch. It's terribly disheartening and I sometimes wonder at the worth of the efforts. Will all this waste ever pay back? Sometimes I even wonder at my judgement of what is even good!<br /><br />I definitely think you've crafted something to be proud of here. Your war was worthwhile in the end. May your spring be full of more like this and much less waste!John D.

Best of luck on your residency. I look forward to seeing what you come out of it with. <br /><br />thank you Rahina. That's very kind of you.<br /><br />thanks Mick! I have really been focusing on color/temp relationships to find my colors as opposed to starting that way and letting it go towards the end..Daniel Coreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11608474052555501801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9113241696195759850.post-38755702718092186862011-03-25T01:46:32.239-07:002011-03-25T01:46:32.239-07:00The study from a couple of posts ago certainly did...The study from a couple of posts ago certainly did the trick and this is a powerful piece. Colour and wide value range really capture the impact of strong light on snow.

Not just in this one, but overall.<br /><br />I'm going to Breckenridge, Colorado next month for 5 weeks artist residency, so I'll be thrown back into winter. It's been 70 here lately. Breck has had over 400 inches of snow so far during ski season, and there's still a month to go. I'm taking a lot of white with me.Billy Guffeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15630378626972553684noreply@blogger.com
