Oil on Cradled Board 8x8 SOLD
This painting started out completely different. There were purplish
mountains in the background and the mood was much brighter. I put it
aside for awhile because I wasn't happy with it. I figured I had nothing
to lose, and recalling artist Robert Bateman's remark to "not be afraid
of your painting," I set about reworking it. I believe what he was
talking about is the importance of taking chances. I'm glad I took the
chance here because I am much happier with this result.
