Mea's Pen/Ink Wash Pieces

[MaryAnne Long]

Thanks, Gita.  I'm still experimenting with different paints to see which ones I like.  Have to sit on my hands to keep from buying any more!!!

Yes, Val.  Hope the glitch days are behind us.

hmmmm glich still up. Other paintings posted in your posts Mea. 

[MaryAnne Long]

Thanks, Maryna.  Darn, this will be the second time I have changed it.

Nolan explained to me that it has to do with the photos that were lost in the glitch.  Now, if we enter a new photo in the gallery, it gets one of the lost numbers.  If the person who had the number has not removed the old number and put in a new photo, the wrong photo goes up.  (Not sure that was the right way to say it.)

This is the Dexter Grist Mill in the historic town of Sandwich, Mass. on Cape Cod.

I am doing some Cape Cod paintings for my friends whom I will visit next week.

Please let me know ASAP if it needs a tweak as it will get matted and packed on Sunday.

  Just recheck the perspective of the waterwheel - the outside circle is much too small. All the paddles mus be horizontal and parallel to each other - they are flaring towards the building. Otherwise, well done

[MaryAnne Long]

OK, Dennis, I will see what I can do to fix it.  Thanks.

This is a neat one, Mea! After the correction, which Dennis has suggested it will look very good!

[MaryAnne Long]

Thanks, Gita.  Will work on the fix today.

Thanks, Dennis and Gita.  I have made the changes as best I could to the waterwheel.  You were so right.  It definitely was way off. The painting looks so much better now.

I also was able to repaint the grass with the new Chromium Green Oxide paint that Terri used in the background for her daffodils.  I bought both watercolor and oil versions - Daniel Smith.  Haven't tried the oil yet, but LOVE the watercolor version.  What a beautiful green.  Thanks, Terri.

Your new chrome green has lifted the whole picture. Well done!

[MaryAnne Long]

Thanks, Linley.  I have been looking for a good green for a long time.  Tried mixing my own, but never had good luck.

Think I have found it with the chromium green oxide.

That's beautiful MEA, the perspective is spot on now and the colors are so nice.
