August 26th-Fall In Provence

This painting is a copy, meaning I painted it myself, but the actual composition idea is from a book. The only thing I did different than the original is I added the patch of greens in the lower right corner, and different splashes of color around the picture. I did this as an exercise (a tedious one I might add) to practice what many artists call the troublesome greens.
The original was done by a canadian artist named Ian Roberts. It can be found in his book entitled, Mastering Composition. I'm learning a lot from that book, including the importance of softening edges; managing cool and warm sections, etc.
This is also the first time I have done a painting with a golden light tone all over. You know I do the reds, and have been working on the blue tones as well. Completing this painting has given me charge to take on one with identical tones, only this time the canvas is EXTRA large! I'll post in a few months.
