LESSON # 56 - Blue Gum Trees

[Val]

I do solemnly swear I will paint more bluegum trees. I have started the succulent one last time... totally different approach... once again       

With only 3 days left to go, this has to be it... doesn't it?

Linley, I'm just worried that the photo you posted from WA Tourism is a copyright photograph. If it is, I suggest you delete from the post.

Hi Dennis... I was worried about that too... Can't I copy it if I don't plan to sell it?

Sorry Dennis, I've deleted the reference photo. Should I delete the painting as well? I wanted to keep the picture for a while and then scrap it. It's more a happy memories painting than a work of art.

Linley, no need to delete the painting, just give reference to it. Posting the actual photo was the problem.
You can keep the painting, only don't sell it or give it away. I must stay in your possession.

Dennis... thankyou. Will act on your advice. Found the photo on Pinterest, although I know that doesn't mean copyright free.
