Cool Down - NFS

"All in Yellow"
8x6

The heat has abated but a gloomy day appeared.  Needed something cheerful & could think of nothing happier than a field of flowers.  Enjoy the day.

Beautiful painting. Love how thick and buttery the paint is in the sky. Yellow diagonals really lead the eye right in. Great composition.

nice and loose. Love how the little touches of purple set off the yellow flowers. Beautiful edges on the distant trees and a fabulous diagonal composition.

Gorgeous scene. When I enlarged it, you can see the brush strokes creating lots of energy along with the diagonals of yellow. This painting really works.

This is a standout - beautiful composition, but you don't let it stop there, you've really worked the foreground to lead our eyes to that sweet spot between the trees. Lovely.
