The Traditional Path? by Julie Cross

Comments

Works very well - like one of Constable's sketches, which, to modern eyes, are more exciting than his finished works.

Love it, especially the light on the foreground path.

Luscious textures, together with the palette has created a dramatic painting. Like it a lot.

I agree with Robert Jones e the Constable reference. The 'falling light' is wonderful.

A contemporary piece with lots of texture, created with a squeegee and palette knife, yet using compositional elements from classical landscape masters (ie. the snow-covered path as lead-in).
