From several photos taken last summer in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Beautiful little town with many, many turn of the century homes and buildings. A real fun tourist stop!
The House of China sells asian things. I'm not a shopper, so I don't know what to call the things in the store. But my daughter and my wife sure did enjoy buying a few things!
Aha, you returned to your easel, which is great! I like the painting for its colors and composition, I like how you do the trees, they are always pain for me. I would add deaper shadows (not because I am so clever and talented, but because my teacher said that shadows add extra contrast and light to the painting and helt to jump forward for the main colors).
I DO TRY to make darker darks, but my brushes and paints just won't make them for me! :-) Liz (Art With Liz) tells me the same thing, so I suppose you and she have been to the same teacher. I will listen.
I'm trying to get into a local workshop (when IF I get the schedule). Maybe I can find some "darks" in a classroom. ;-)
Thanks for the advice, I'll TRY to remember DARKER, DARKER, DARKER, DARKER, DARKER, DARKER, DARK. What?
