My problem is that if I wait too long to finish them, I lose interest. So I'll probably end up working only on the few good ones and paint over the rest...Valérie Pirlothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16470723379873674087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3504788645535827601.post-12017913909244678232011-10-07T04:03:46.773+01:002011-10-07T04:03:46.773+01:00First congratulations on getting six in the show. ...First congratulations on getting six in the show. I look forward to hearing how it turns out. I like the simplicity of this painting. I have started several but seem to not be finishing them. I'll eventually get back to them but right now they are accumulating. Do you ever have unfinished paintings stack up? I think I kind of loose interest if they aren't working out right away. Then I can go back to them with a fresh eye later and I find that I like them better.Douglas Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13814926126903308566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3504788645535827601.post-33996093514439585392011-10-05T20:50:18.036+01:002011-10-05T20:50:18.036+01:00Thanks Antonio!Thanks Antonio!Valérie Pirlothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16470723379873674087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3504788645535827601.post-69706791926439286782011-10-05T03:20:50.621+01:002011-10-05T03:20:50.621+01:00Very beautiful painting!

Good to hear you have 3 paintings selected. Looking forward to the show. About the Belgium landmark to add in the painting, I suppose the most famous building would be "l'Atomium" but I would think twice before integrating it as it has the odd shape of a unit cell - google it!<br /><br />Thanks Victor for your comment. The page of my entries is still showing my 8 entries but basically the first 6 ones are the ones selected. Glad you like the Reflections on the River. My trick for this one would be about adding some impressionistic touches of highlights at the end with pure dry paint to give a chalky feeling to it.<br /><br />Thanks Haidee-Jo for your lovely comment. I had a look at your blog and you have some lovely paintings there, I'm a follower now!Valérie Pirlothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16470723379873674087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3504788645535827601.post-16753113943630792262011-10-04T16:57:22.889+01:002011-10-04T16:57:22.889+01:00Wow Valerie!

I had a look at your entries, and I was looking for my favourite<br />out of the six, but couldn`t decide, they are all brilliant. If I really had`to pick a favourite, it would be Reflections on the River, stunning. How do you achieve that fuzzy atmosphere? it`s brilliant. All the best with the exhibition Valerie, and once again, all brilliant. <br />Vic.Victor Erringtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09374323225965910201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3504788645535827601.post-1008644901571577252011-10-04T08:03:22.026+01:002011-10-04T08:03:22.026+01:00Hey Congratulations Valerie!!
