Aussie Shed - Take 1
A place for me to share and reflect as I commit to embarking on my creative journey. I've journaled for over half my life and recently have delved into sketchbook journaling.

On My Own...Aussie Outback Shed
Working on a painting of my own of a shed I photographed when traveling in the Australia Outback a few years ago. First the photo, then a value study/color study plan in my sketchbook, and then a painting. I call it "Take 1" because I'm painting it again. I hated it when I first finished it. But when I looked at it later, I didn't hate it so much. I even found parts I liked such as the inside of the shed. I really feel like I captured depth here. The rest is okay but the part I like the least is my attempt at capturing the shadows on the shed. Mine is too splotchy...I want to paint the shadows softer. So today I'm working on "Take 2" and probably after that a "Take 3"...
