    I don’t paint plein air (from life) too often. I know I should because you get a better sense of perspective. I decided to paint the view from my living room window. I’ll admit that I had a photo I’d taken earlier on my laptop, taken with a Zoom lens, so I could verify detail, but I tried not to reference it unless I was getting lost. Next…[Read more]

          It lloks like a vert green state. I see lots of national forests on Google earth. I can see why you were so concerned about the fires.

          • Profile picture of Sandra Strait
            Sandra Strait replied 1 hour, 7 minutes ago

            Yes. Oregon is careful to protect its forests. We haven’t allowed as much building or huge recreational sites like most states have. 2/3 of the state is semi-arid, but the forested areas get lots (LOTS) of rainfall. Fires didn’t use to be a big problem. Between climate change and increasing population though, it’s getting drier every year.

    My artsy.rooo DTIYS Challenge Response. DTIYS - \'Do This In Your Style\' is popular on Instagram right now. An artist draws or paints something and challenges others, not to copy, but to paint the same subject in their own way. This is probably the only time I\'ll do one, because I always have too many other projects going on. Artsy.rooo\'s style is so dynamic, bold and bright and I loved his challenge painting, so this once I jumped in and did it. Currently, I experimenting with the poster art style, so that\'s the way I did it. Surprisingly it came closer to Jayme\'s style than I thought it would, so I hope it\'s different enough (I know it isn\'t as well done!). Want to give it a try?
