But I am ...You are a magician with rocks and surf! But I am struggling with the "down in the hole" concept. When I look at both your plein air study and your current painting side by side, the only clue I get as to whether you are standing above the action or in it, is the horizon. Does this mean that you could paint looking down at the hold, but cheat the horizon line and end up with a dramatic painting. Or is something else happening that I am too stupid to notice?alotterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09700351186742512499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5682081471599286551.post-86577546179085281182010-05-26T10:40:21.787-04:002010-05-26T10:40:21.787-04:00I think one of the best parts of this blog is the ...I think one of the best parts of this blog is the way you are not afraid to lay yourself open to each of us. Your thought process is<br />a cruical part of your blog. The questions you ask yourself, are the same type of questions I NEED to ask myself. It doesn't come as easy to me as I would like it to.<br />I know,"PAINT,PAINT,PAINT"!<br /><br />I agree that reference material can grab at you and not want to let go. So I must learn to TRUST my<br />memory better. I've been told I have a good one anyway.<br /><br />I'll let you know about the sandunes. For this I will give the <br />photos a rest.

Just when you think it's safe to paint.....Students think they are learning painting so that it will become easier tp paint as they get better. Little do they realize is that what they are learning is the persistence to struggle the rest of their painting lives.
