Sunset through a wood by David Perry

Comments

Hmmm sadly now it is on screen it looks much duller than in real life, rubbish in fact. Sorry to inflict this on you. The real painting has a gentle brilliance which this photo does not capture, so even the good bits are lost. C'est la vie.

I like this but I know how you feel, David. I've got dozens of paintings that I thought were o.k until I uploaded them and saw them on screen. Did you photograph it or scan it in? Generally I find scanning better but you can be limited if the original is bigger than the scanner. Either way, it's the original that really matters and if it has a 'gentle brilliance' and was successful for what you wanted at the time then that's all you really need.

Inspired by a walk recently through a wood, the floor was scattered with brilliantly glowing yellow flowers. I have tried to capture this here, trying a few techniques new to me. I can see some horrors, there are some I probably cant see,but on the whole it is successful for what I wanted. I hope you just enjoy looking at it.
