I started doing something different with the sky, which will eventually affect the lighting of the whole painting. This one has been tough. I have never painted on canvas before, and I prefer wood. Maybe I have just gotten used to it.

I have been coding up some changes related to this post:

They are less draconian, and I hope will be better received. I’ll probably push it tomorrow. I will be removing user promotion, which should lower the barrier to entry.

Thanks to those of you sending the positive vibes.

Despite the COVID19, I’m looking forward to cooler weather. If it weren’t for time at the cottage, July and August would be my least favorite months.

Those clouds on the left are awesome. It’s hard to believe that you have been painting for this long workout using canvass. That has to be unusual.

I’m actually not too happy with them, but thanks. Clouds are freaking amazing. I keep looking at clouds now. They aren’t white.

They’re ominous. The painting is so pretty that a touch of that is nice.

I love the purple in the sky.
