This started out as a value study. As I added detail I began to think it may work as a complete painting. Allowing the sky to be white is quite a departure for me...but the last few experiments seem to have pointed me in a "Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead" mode. It's only paint..! oil on 5 x 7 gessoed board

Fine, then... I'm calling it good, too. I love your devil-may-care attitude. Let's have some fun... it's just paint! -Don
i like it
the blue works well,makes for a moody mood!
Very nice painting Celeste.
It works! You set a tone and mood and it's wonderful.
Teehee; love that philosophy, Celeste! To my eyes, skies are sometimes more white than any other color (though I'm at a loss to explain why...refraction, I suppose). I was immediately struck by how you've made this oil look more like a watercolor. I've not seen that before and I think it is exquisite!
Fun! Creative! Get outta the way!
You evoke much life Celeste!
It's all good!
Very nice! Love your comment, "It's only paint! I need to think more like that.
Just beautiful!
Lovely violet shades and tones!
Hi Celeste,
very nice loose and spontaneous painting, read somewhere that white is a shade of blue, so your colors are harmonious. Very well done
Celeste...the mood inthis is just awesome...the depth and colors I love too. Well done. This will be great big too!
you're a master for creating unresistible atmospheres ....
this work is fantastic and hard to take the eyes of it .
This one sets a mood of contemplation. I love it. It is luminous and alive and beautiful.
Nope, not good. Its GREAT!
I like the hallucinatory quality of this, which relates, for me, to the shimmering painting below.
Wow... With this overwhelming response you must know how your departure from your usual sky colors worked very well. Brava!
Celeste, I think you hit this one out of the park. It is fantastic!
