The colour changes from time to time and I try to keep the value as close to a value five as I can.The col.does not necessarily change from painting to painting but from the influences of the seasons,weather etc. Quirky, eh ? The white of the support does nothing for me peeking through the colours of a finished painting.Frank A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01277367319900086945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16786589.post-50083551794620328362008-02-09T21:07:00.000-05:002008-02-09T21:07:00.000-05:00Hey, hi liz...Thanks!"Thanks for the peek into the...Hey, hi liz...Thanks!<BR/><BR/>"Thanks for the peek into the process."<BR/><BR/>My pleasure .. : )Frank A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01277367319900086945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16786589.post-51364848432536962012008-02-09T21:04:00.000-05:002008-02-09T21:04:00.000-05:00Thanks Frank.. appreciate your comments.Glad that ...Thanks Frank.. appreciate your comments.<BR/>Glad that you are enjoying winter through my eyes... : ) right now, I would rather be where you are. : )Frank A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01277367319900086945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16786589.post-34616741919345547062008-02-07T18:42:00.000-05:002008-02-07T18:42:00.000-05:00Frank, nice job with the trees in the BG.

For some reason, I thought these would be started on just plain white. Perhaps because the contrasts seem so vibrant.Michael Pieczonkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03564760964865130176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16786589.post-43567086248799797922008-02-07T13:32:00.000-05:002008-02-07T13:32:00.000-05:00Those distant trees are fantastic Frank.
