Gum Trees


I tried, for the first time, knife painting. I had a ball!!!!!! I can't for the life of me get the colours to read correctly, because the oil paint is still wet, so I guess it is the glare that is bothering the camera.

  4. Nice work JJ, glad you enjoyed experimenting with the palette knife. I have a set of them somewhere, still in the original wrapping, I think!lol

    I think the values are a little dark especially in the foreground. Maybe, you could add more highlights when it it dry enough to work on...that's only MO ;)
