Oh! I shouldn't...huh? I like both just great, and of course the photo is spectacular because that's what you're doing it from. I just think that a painting can sometimes have a character all its own that a photograph can never capture. And that's coming from me - a photographer. :)
I wasn't sure if I was going to pull it off with this image--some photos are spectacular because they actually capture a moment in time which may come off as contrivance when painted--does that make sense?
This is the labor intensive part where it probably doesn’t look as if I’ve made much progress… 
i have been told that i can be "wordie",, I have no words without sounding "gushy,,:)
ReplyDeleteI can't help it Glen, I love when you gush! :)
ReplyDeleteWell it looks great now! I like it better than the photo!!!!! Oh my gosh, I just love your stuff. Truly!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michelle--just don't say that loud enough for Doug (the photographer) to hear!

ReplyDeleteThat definitely makes sense. I think you picked a really nice one to paint. It suits watercolor extremely well.
