Here’s my challenge from a painting I did at camp a while ago. I wanted to paint the light on the windows on the old house but the trees tried to take the stage. I knocked Back the bushes and moved the big tree to the side a bit and made it smaller. I think it’s a better composition and is easier to see without color.
Thanks for sharing the challenge with the light and how you solved it.

Sounds like you did a lot of rearranging and all for the better. Wish you had included the original so I could see the difference.
I would have liked to see the original too. This reminds me of Wyeth’s work. Very moody and interesting.
Actually this is the original. Maybe Susan will post the gray tone with the challenge.
So sorry Margaret. I totally missed the value study. When I hear back from you I will either post it or keep the group in suspense til Friday.
I feel as though I’m standing in the yard! It reminds me of my great aunt’s house of manymyears ago. A wonderful memory.
