Terrys' Challenge


Cityscape  12" x 16"  Oil

This is my response to the challenge set by Terry Miura to SIMPLIFY! Go here to find out all about it.
I have long been a fan, especially after his 'eureka' moment! He has had an amazing response, so many paintings and all so different.
I knew I would find it difficult and you can see I got in a muddle in the middle. I maybe took the simplify thing too far! I'm glad I persevered, though, because I like it and the lessons learned. Not only about simplifying but about perspective too. I have thoroughly enjoyed this so maybe I shall take up more challenges!

WA - Cityscape


I always promised myself that I would post everything, whether success or failure! I had the worst afternoon ever at the WA yesterday, painting wise. Everything was wrong, colours, drawing, size...way too big, soooo....this is how it looks this morning
