Oil on paper.

Hey thanks again!

So nineteen twenties or twenty twenties :-D There are so many fantastic old paintings, it's hard to know who was the master behind each of them, even just among the impressionists, like Adam Smith that I stumbled onto once.

Yeah the green is bushes, mostly. I used two photos to try to get it right, yep I'm very new to oil painting!

I'm on a new painting, but maybe I'll go back and make another try (it's the fourth already) when I feel I 'get' those trees a bit better. Trees are hard sometimes!

It's mostly a try to just exercise, but I do like the setup/composition so I probably feel it worthwhile to make it better. Or so I hope.

Thanks again for all kind criticism and hugs all along!

Def were some comments too cause you dun-did good =)! But foreals, you can always come back to stuff and never forget it cause you're walking on the backs of so many if you know what I mean? Like you can always do studies and try to corner what you like so much about them and integrate it into your own approach. You're gunna be a master this time next year, trust =)!

Rules

AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).

Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.

Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.

Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.
