I just need to try again ad plan ahead.<br /><br />Judy--these tree trunks ore brownish grey and bluish brown.<br /><br />I'm definitely going to try again in a larger format. A challenge!

I've never been good at working on tiny things--I'm the kid who got in trouble in elementary school for drawing so big I drew off the paper.<br /><br />Also, a question--why does every one paint tree trunks brown? Most look gray to me. Is it just me?Judithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12040577651980084345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-39236186608181743102021-06-15T09:59:31.433-04:002021-06-15T09:59:31.433-04:00Well done Vicki!

You could also cheat a tiny tiny bit with a little bit of white gouache in the water or scratch the paper with a razor... or use drawing gum (our teacher forbids it though) ahead of time.Thérèsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14354559064351144704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-47474152795095690632021-06-15T09:35:00.931-04:002021-06-15T09:35:00.931-04:00wonderful study...and each time you'll choose ...wonderful study...and each time you'll choose to do it a bit differently! Keep practicing. It's like some philosopher said, everything is just a rehearsal, and there won't ever be a final performance, just more rehearsing!Barbara Rogershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08351113054045427775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-55395107846579320442021-06-15T08:41:11.824-04:002021-06-15T08:41:11.824-04:00Oh,,definitely redo on a larger paper or canvas.

And the photo itself enlarged and printed and framed would be lovely.
