Sort of have to recalibrate what you do and with what medium. My husband suggested I add a small flat credit card size magnifying lens which had me in stitches, but I ot one for it.jafabrithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04490900607853203086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6781217.post-9089827443713431012008-12-15T02:35:00.000+00:002008-12-15T02:35:00.000+00:00Very encouraging, Anna.

I've benefited from it too.harry bellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11853116370799042788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6781217.post-25008927545645287842008-12-13T13:00:00.000+00:002008-12-13T13:00:00.000+00:00Hi HarryYour subject matter appeals me and I like ...Hi Harry<BR/>Your subject matter appeals me and I like this piece very much. I do like the offset images and this as worked well. I do like compositions like this and a view from a different angle can produce something quite interesting. These small panels lend themself to this quick work. I also paint the occasional oil and have a number of 9x11 prepared boards. you have inspired me again.<BR/>Regards<BR/>TrevorTrevor Lingardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17296017013239522340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6781217.post-27333057740820201442008-12-13T03:11:00.000+00:002008-12-13T03:11:00.000+00:00It's not that I don't like the composition - I do....It's not that I don't like the composition - I do. But on a 5 x 7 board, putting the architecture in the bottom third makes for a very small area in which to paint.<BR/><BR/>When I was painting it today, a guy asked where the subject was. When I said "The Bigg Market" he told me he'd never looked up at the tops of the buildings. I do, all the time. and it's in those unlooked for places that I find my favourite subjects.harry bellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11853116370799042788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6781217.post-79273516639897774692008-12-12T20:33:00.000+00:002008-12-12T20:33:00.000+00:00I actually like the composition a LOT.

So for me it as a sense of wonderment and the architecture is just marvelous.<BR/><BR/>I thought about the painting a day and it is an excellent idea for pushing yourself. I can't even do my drawing every day though, arg!jafabrithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04490900607853203086noreply@blogger.com
