Absolutely love the format, Pat. This is so stunning and I love the reflections of blue in the path. The sunlight on the grounds are magnificently handled!
What a beautiful painting, Pat! Your use of the colors is fascinating, and the sunlight at the far end draws you through this wonderful scene. Best wishes on your exhibit!
Sherry, thank you so much for your comments. I used "broken color" in this painting. I like the effect I got, and should be trying to use it more often.
Sunny, thank you. Corot used to use that technique of darkening the foreground to draw the eye into the middle ground. I should do it more often, but you know how the scene or subject sometimes dictates the approach. LOL
Love the composition!I like people going out there to paint a little piece of nature...

Thanks, Monica, nature can be inspiring.
Congratulations on the sale Pat. It was great to be with you again!
Thanks, Mary Beth. It was great to see everybody. Can't wait 'til spring to do more plein air painting.
I smile every time I look at this painting, and am so happy to have it become a part of my home. Hope that you and your family have a very Merry Christmas, Pat!
Claire, as an artist yourself, you can appreciate how wonderful it is to know your painting has found a good home. I hope this painting will bring you many years of joy. Merry Christmas to you and your wonderful family.
