The way that I think works best for me is to work out a composition and then pound it, paint it paint it paint it until I can paint it no more. Having established the compo I can explore different aspects of my palette, textures etc. I'm free to paint and of course I'm never satisfied but its my way of practicing the craft. Bink to blow and then vote.

Great exercises - great paintings. I love them all but tonight I'm drawn to the dark clouds -
One for the dark clouds. I'm out to the garden to take some shots will post...
That's a really hard decision. Well the second one is knocked out becuase you left the bird out and I enjoy the bird.
I think I am gonna go with the last one. I like the colors and the windows and the background and...
One for number four. We have a tie.
I'm torn between the top two. The very top draws my eye to the house--the colors seem to be catchy. But then like Cara, the dark clouds grab at me too. I think I'd have to succumb to the artistic molestation and vote for the dark clouds.
And the Dark Clouds are ahead 2 to 1.
I don't like any of them.
One vote for "none of the above".
Hellos to favorite painter of decadent western culture in collapsing state. Long live the Tsar! Am voting for second one with Chernobyl clouds.
Greetings earthling, haw, have been visiting glorious painter of aliens, Mr Kidd. Ron, you are drawing not bad for guy with one eye. I vote for sunny sky on bottom.
Hello Ron, I've always admired your technical ability. I'm voting for the gray sky also.
Pensol votes for sunny skies.
Thanks, Grampa, the checks in the mail.
Sorry Iggy, dark clouds gets another.
I like the top one with the red car.
We have a vote for the top painting.
I like the second from the top with the dark, brooding clouds. It has an air of expectancy and mystery. Rain storm coming? Clearing weather? Nightfall? Halloween?
I'm sticking with purple cars. Matches my purple pants and floppy hat!
ummm, so ron, just how many personalities do you have? :p
B.J. votes for the dark side.
W.K. says purple does it for him.
Purple numero uno!
I'm with Moore-purple at bottom.
Another vote for the purple at the bottom
Okay, I'm in a better mood now. Can I change my vote for the bottom one with the purple car?
Irregularities in the voting process?
Vote early. Vote often. Is it hot around here or is it just me?
N.N., is that a thumbs down? I'm hurt.
rofl. no no no, that is a smiley face sticking its tongue out. (:P)
b b see there those are what my thumbs look like when I see your paintings. :)
you're too funny
oh no, i'm deformed! it should look like this... b d
I choose #4 and I think that I have a reason. It's the white at top. I like when you use white, leave white that is. It balances out the richer colors.
Thanks, Tom, its fun to hear the reasons for a choice.
