Okay, Edward is "Da Man" and I am learning from the best. I learned a ton doing this study of his work. I have included both pictures, as a reference so that I can see my improvements and the glaring mistakes too, Edward Seago's painting (digitally framed). What a wonderful, clean, "not" overworked painting. I chose to make just a few changes that I did not like. His brush strokes on the right hand, bottom side I did not care for in the water. My eye was led to them and I decided to remove them. I also removed the white triangle "thing" in the middle since I had no idea what it was. A sail on a sailboat?
My Cons: 1. The cabin doors. I blew it, what can I say? 2. Overworked sky. I screwed up the top left cobalt sky color. I should have done a complete underpainting below the clouds on the top right too. 3. The cabin shadow, not so much. 4. The background trees are a smidge too dark. My Pros: 1. This is the first painting I have done that I did not have a supporting video to go along with it. I was very excited about that! 2. I'm making great headway on mixing colors. 3. My shadow across the road is a little weak but I still like it. I am fairly satisfied with the turn out! Time to find my next Seago study. I so look forward to it!!!
