Thanks Grant, I appreciate your comments.

I have no problems with doing painting for lessons from the greats. We don't learn art in a vacuum.
It also allows me to concentrate on handling the medium rather than having to come up with a subject and keeping it under control.
For me, the most important aspect is the ability to handle the paint with skill.

You have done well with soft pastels.
I have some and also some oil pastels but have not done much with them. My Rembrandt oil pastels
are now a vintage set.

Cool idea about mounting a ball head on the easel!

Most of my paintings are packed in a box in the basement.
I may dig them out after the holidays.
Most of them are crap though! LOL

You lake painting is well balanced and detailed without being sharp and saturated. Nicely done!
