DERIVED

from the small painting, this 30x40 is finished, at least to the "I'll set it aside and look at for a while" stage.



My initial reaction is one of dissatisfaction. It does not capture the mood I wanted, and I'm disappointed in the sky...thinking it is too orange. But I'll give it a chance to convince me otherwise, and if it doesn't, I'll paint over it and start all over. One mistake I made was to spend too much time looking back at the smaller piece, not allowing this one to direct me.
