Hi Ed ...Hi Gina - go on! get the paint box out :-)<br /><br />Hi Ed - I MUST do this more often, working from photos just flattens the whole experience.<br /><br />Hi Frances - how interesting to go to Hockney's lecture at the Met - even though he was cantankerous!<br /><br />Thank you Kayla coo - I'm pleased with the clouds too.<br /><br />Hi Rhiannon - I think that's why I like Hockney - he makes me think about looking at things.<br /><br />Hi Louise - it's definitely worth watching.<br /><br />Hi Woodland Fay - the landscape is alive and changing all the time, it's an exercise in capturing a sensation and a moment in time.<br /><br /><br />Must practice more...<br /><br />Celia<br />xCelia Harthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12776686088752602321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220897337333701839.post-44520245280016878272009-07-30T22:36:57.411+01:002009-07-30T22:36:57.411+01:00Love this post.

Really grand.<br /><br />You are inspiring me to try to find time to get outdoors myself. Day off tomorrow ... think that rain is in the forecast.<br /><br />About DH. I always liked his drawing and his etchings and his way, for a number of decades,of capturing what as what, wherever it was.<br /><br />Once I did attend a lecture he gave at the Met here in New York, and somehow was a bit disappointed. By then, he was obviously quite deaf, and carefully chose what he wanted to hear. <br /><br />Would have been better to have let his art do the talking. I do agree that he might just not have ever gotten too far away from Yorkshire.<br /><br />Let me sign off with more praise of what I see in your photo. xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220897337333701839.post-58853535593712526792009-07-24T01:12:28.592+01:002009-07-24T01:12:28.592+01:00This is exactly how the Impressionists got started...This is exactly how the Impressionists got started.

I did manage to do a little on holiday in Italy several summers ago.<br /><br />I think you have captured the colours in the landscape very well.<br /><br />Did you ever see David Hockney's Tv series about artist's and the camera? It was fascinating, especially when he showed how dutch masterpieces were done with the aid of a camera obscura.Acornmoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14982884920388966786noreply@blogger.com
