Can't tell from this painting that you aren't a seasoned landscape painter.<br /><br />Probably the biggest issue I see with landscape paintings is poor aerial/atmospheric perspective. You nailed it here, so no suggestions from me, other than paint on location as much as you can :). I also think doing studio landscapes like this will be a good preparation for doing plein air work, as you get to sort out issues like palette and color mixing ahead of time.Sonya Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01879889885162011649noreply@blogger.com
