This is my daily paint works challenge piece for the week. The challenge is to paint white on white. May tweak the shadows a bit before I call it finished!
Kathryn, so much easier to be brave with colors when painting for fun, and not a portrait for someone, if I don't like how it turns out, I don't have to show anyone!
Wow, Maria, this is so beautiful!! I love the horse's face and the blues and violets on the horse. The way you did the snow is awesome, too! I basically love everything about this painting!
Hi Maria - my iPad won't bring up the movie for me, so will have to get DH to bring my laptop to me for your latest post. I love, love, love everything about this painting!!! The color, the composition, the emotion. Your balance of value is incredible!
Oh, this is just perfect, Maria! The lights and darks are so beautiful, so much light and volume with such crisp colors. Great work!
