We left the house over the weekend and we (well, just me really) had to dig through a pile of ice and snow to get back in Sunday evening. I broke two snow shovels. It was good I started with four.<BR/><BR/>Maybe it'll warm up enough here soon so I can do some real plein airs. Till then your paintings will keep me inspired.<BR/><BR/>I'll have to try that painting-without-looking trick. It works well for you and seems like a nice way to surprise yourself.Tom Kiddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01304383935503636393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8591891289335116213.post-26481612289600489582007-03-24T17:11:00.000-07:002007-03-24T17:11:00.000-07:00You're welcome Stefan,.....and by the way, I alway...You're welcome Stefan,<BR/>.....and by the way, I always appreciate your comments and I too very much enjoy visiting and learning from your blog!Jennifer McChristianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09421669439217821975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8591891289335116213.post-78947930437423961562007-03-24T02:47:00.000-07:002007-03-24T02:47:00.000-07:00Hi Jennifer,it is hard to write something when so ...Hi Jennifer,<BR/>it is hard to write something when so many right and beautiful things about your paintings had been said.

Find the shapes, create the pattern, and cast the light. Light the painting from within with underpainting, leave traces of warmth and highlight as you layer and then harmonize with imposed highlights and toning. I do pay attention, but I couldn't do it to save my life.Ron Morrisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10787006578615434837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8591891289335116213.post-70451409355550026802007-03-23T00:25:00.000-07:002007-03-23T00:25:00.000-07:00Yummy!Yummy!Jennifer McChristianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09421669439217821975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8591891289335116213.post-50385188736918286992007-03-23T00:19:00.000-07:002007-03-23T00:19:00.000-07:00green death.. ranier alegreen death.. ranier aleWilliam K.

I have to agree with Rene.. when looking at them they look deceptively simple (a great strength I think), but I know it is YEARS of knowledge that you have put into each piece!! Beautiful arrangement with the slanted board in the first one.. and something about the sense of light really quivers in the second piece. Both a visual delight!<BR/><BR/>p.s. thanks for the tip about the EasyL box you use.<BR/><BR/>MikeMichael Pieczonkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03564760964865130176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8591891289335116213.post-43563840680624432962007-03-21T11:21:00.000-07:002007-03-21T11:21:00.000-07:00Louis, I appreciate the comment and thanks for vis...Louis, I appreciate the comment and thanks for visiting :)Jennifer McChristianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09421669439217821975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8591891289335116213.post-82323147454049165772007-03-21T04:25:00.000-07:002007-03-21T04:25:00.000-07:00Great stuff Jennifer!
