There's some good work here. Marjorie, the second painting you posted is a beauty! It has one of the softest, warmest most subtle skies Ive ever seen. I guess the red underpainting helped there.

I have used a range of colours Peter and rarely paint from a white canvas. The advice you have been given is excellent.

Bill, I used pink as a ground for the second painting - it was of a slightly misty morning.

Just love all three Marjorie, and especially your beautiful foreground colours. I've looked for them on the Gallery but can't find them - have you posted them to the Gallery? If not are you going to?

Thank you Sandra. I’m sure I posted them but it would have been quite a time ago. Do you know that if you click on someone’s “ full profile” ( under any image) you come to all their images separated into subject headings. The first two images will be under “Places”, the third under “ Seasons” - I think.
