Here's a peaceful place!
San Bernardino Mountains in Southern California is about an hour and fifteen minute drive from
our home in Azusa. There are abundant forests in the vicinity of Silverwood Lake. The landscape is rich with
inspiring subject matter. Here I've featured birch trees overlooking a small stream. The water sparkles with
reflections from the blue sky above while lavendar mountains keep silent watch.
He brought streamsalso out of the rock, and caused waters to run down like rivers. Ps

Painting Tip
Contrast is an important element to have in a painting. Try to get
your darks nice and dark, but connect them - like a necklace of different sizes and shapes lying on
the work. The connections don't have to actually touch. They can be very close together like
stepping stones.

"The artist who aims at perfection in everything achieves it in
nothing."
Eugene Delacroix
Specialization is power!
Eugene Delacroix taught that if you try to be perfect at everything as an artist, you'll achieve it
in nothing.
But it's fun learning and trying to improve as an artist and also as a writer and website
designer.
