Started taking oil painting lessons just over a month ago. So far this is where I am. Have to admit that it is much more enjoyable then I imagined it would be. Gina my teacher is a very talented artist. She also has the patience of a saint.LOl This painting is from a reference photo I took of my b/f"s aunts property. She lives next door to us. It is a 16x20 canvas, smooth surface. All the green is certainly a learning experience and driving me nuts. But then again landscapes have a lot of green depending on the season. I will continue to update my progress on here. Bye for Now Sent from my BlackBerry® powered by Virgin Mobile.
