Anyhow, what is unique about this, I did the same scene about 12 years ago as shown here. What's fun is how, as an artist, you are always developing, changing and sometimes maybe even improving(???). I do like my newer direction, looser, by so much more colorful ( Paire school of Art always had us using brunt and raw umbers... I barely touch those now). Yet, interesting, there are still a basic core that I like about the first painting as well. Of course, you can see how I use the the long highlight of the afternoon sun off in the fields, just the same as the newer one, and for instance this winter scene down the street from our home.
Eric Sloane, noted artist or rural landscapes, used this technique quite often, so I need to give credit where credit is due. Hope you enjoy thanks for taking a peek.
