Several more layers on this one, especially on the tree trunks and the house. Tree trunks probably have four layers–took that many to get a good “bark” look. Will be tackling the foliage next.
I visited the cottage a few days ago about an hour before sunset and stuck around to see what kind of light I would get in that hour. The trees are still stubbornly refusing to get fall color, but I did get a nice atmospheric shot that will be outstanding when we do get some color. All I have to do is make sure I get the same angle when it counts. No problem, right?
Love the shadows and light. Unfinished paintings are so full of promise!

Nice! I like the shadows on the ground. We are having a colorless fall here too. What is up with that? Leaves are turning a dull yellow or brown and falling off and others are still green and still attached. I

No kidding. Here, the maples are usually the last to turn color. Now, a few of them have already dropped leaves while others are still totally green. Something is amiss…
