It's worked = the green glaze, the darkling sky, and your buffalos/bison. I should bet - though could of course be wrong - that you're now itching to paint something brighter; tends to be how these things take me. On the pain front - it's such a nuisance: I've been painting in oil for several days on end, and now can hardly lift my right arm above shoulder level - so my advice to you is: paint on, but when it starts to hurt, take a rest!

I agree with Robert it worked so well ,I don’t think it’s to dark it’s very much a late sunset. You have drawn and painted the Bison beautifully, the whole painting is a delight, it would look good on any wall.

I like this Denise. It's very moody and effective.

Very atmospheric, Denise, and the sky colours are lovely.

I think that is quite superb, Denise. very well done!!

A great success Denise, well done.

Certainly very atmospheric Denis and a beautiful composition.

Very moody and atmospheric. Well done!

Your comments are very much appreciated. Thanks Robert, Paul, Lewis, Jenny, David, Russell, Chris and Linda.

The glazes have worked really well. It's excellent Denise, well done!

Very atmospheric Denise. Well done.

Beautifully painted Denise.

I have just re-read your piece on the forum about this Denise, and I think the result is wonderful. You’ve achieved a very striking painting with really rich colour and a sense of something prehistoric. Excellent work and those glazes work so well.

Absolute stunner of a painting Denise- it really works -

Another one under your belt Denise! Looks like something portentous is about to happen…a good result.

Fabulous painting, Denise - the sky is so impressive...

That sky is magnificent Denise.

This is super Denise. This is so atmospheric and mysterious and the colour is great. The bison are painted so well with great detail.

Looks great Denise - fabulous sky and light!

Great combination of realism and imagination which works well. Love the sky

Very powerful and successful painting Denise, the sky is so impressive.

Thanks Martin and George and a big thanks to Alan as I've read all his articles and always used his advice and feel he has helped me greatly with my oil painting and Robert who's advice I value greatly.

This is beautiful, Denise.

Very eye catching Denise, wonderful sky.

What can I say that hasn't been said already. It's wonderful!

I've been working on this for a few weeks but time to move on to something new.The buffalo are from my own reference photos taken at the local Safari park as I have watched this group over the years. Background from imagination. I finished it off with two coats of a green glaze I thought I would try out. Painted on canvas. 60 cm x 50 cm.

About the Artist

My name is, Denise. I started painting at the end of April during the Covid lockdown 2020. I’ve never painted before or had any experience of doing any art. I walked into a shop, bought some watercolours and have been trying to teach myself. I have pain conditions and had to retire early last year…
