....CHANGED background tree shapes... pushed them back, and pulled paint off so they feel lighter... These are great studies in composition - how to change the landscape to get a good composition, color studies - working with small adjustments of color, taking things out, changing their size - and then to do it all using a palette knife - something I haven't done much of but have seen some artist's work that I love that use a palette knife... so I'm giving it a try - this would be a piece of cake in pastel - but then how do you learn if you do the same thing over and over!
