My strategy for my painting is to do more in the future. This may seem like a lame ambition made by someone who isn’t really planning to do more painting in the future. However, my particular circumstances are that we have just moved into a very old cottage, 260 years old! which in my opinion needs a lot of work. The plan for me is to focus on getting all of that work out of the way and of course this means less time on my painting than I would like. This will increase over time. Anyway, back to the painting. I can’t think why I thought that the foreground trees could hold up as a silhouette. If I’m being honest I wasn’t sure I could pull it off in terms on painting them in detail, some of this is still new territory. Comparing today with the previous version it is very clear it needed it, still learning. I think this painting is finished.
