Tanglewood – Done or Not?

I think I am done with this painting. A few areas stand out in the current scan that I will attend to tomorrow most likely, but by and large, I think it is finished.

A few things, though, I am thinking about that may need more work. First, the two lowest arching trees look like a bridge because of the highlights on their upper surfaces. The second is, should the tree that is in the right crossing over the lowest arching tree correctly placed?

I find scanning a painting gives me a different viewpoint and what I don’t see when it is right in front of me become more apparent when seen on a monitor as a digital image.

Ccoments?

  1. I think it’s looking good and it seems done to me. But I understand how it needs to look finished to you, the artist, in order for you to stop painting. I’m just the same!

  2. Thanks, Margaret. Other people’s thoughts can help. I know you get that. One gets so involved in one’s own work that it becomes a bit too hard to step away.

  3. Thanks, Fraggy. I appreciate your observations. So hard to tell when something is done, even after walking away from it. Onward to the next!
