I can see the finish line …..

I spent yesterday and half of today on this hill, and this is as far as I could manage, the right hillside will have to wait till Monday, as I am rostered to drive a taxi tomorrow (Sunday). I have some questions here to resolve, maybe I will try a milky blue glaze over the hills and the water with reflections to hopefully tie it all in. It is all a learning process, I should be okay to post again late Monday or maybe tuesday and then I can think about something else.

my job for next weekend is to paint some green hills 

last weekend I was thinking this painting might fail, now I'm feeling okay, even though the colour is a little on the imaginative side. So far I have only used Permanent Violet Dark , Paynes Gray, C.P. Cadmium yellow Medium, Titanium White and Ultramarine Blue in the Golden Artist range.

It has been a long time since I have had stuff for public view

One week ago I bubble wrapped these paintings and took them down to the New Zealand Art show here in Wellington TSB centre.  If they sell, I will be hopeful of driving a taxi a little less and painting a little more.
