Simply Purple




6 X 8 Acrylic on Canvas Board

Just another practice landscape painting while attempting to paint it in monochrome. This is my first monochromatic painting. I can see where I could have put some more contrast into it...maybe add a few highlights here and there. I wanted to paint another 8 X 10, but I ran out of 8 X 10 canvas board and Michael's is closed.

  1. I think that the landscape is lovely. Monochromatic images are a challenge...one which I think that you handled beautifully.

  2. I think this is beautiful. I have not attempted the monochromatic but I think you did a lovely job! I have a friend who is hypercritical of her work and I always tell her it is because she is nose to nose with it and sees what she thinks are flaws based on her expectations. Others viewing it have no idea and always think it wonderful. We're just too close to our own work to be objective.
