Thanks, Shayna. In my sketches and in my paintings, I try to place the darks around the focal area and gradate outward from there. High contrasts draw the eye, so you don't want that everywhere in your sketch or your painting.
I've been drawing and painting since I was 12 years old. I live in St. Louis and paint in Boothbay Harbor, Maine and Apalachicola, Florida. Most paintings are half sheets (15" X 22") and are for sale starting at $400. I am also available for WORKSHOPS in your area. Next workshop is in Boothbay Harbor, Maine in September, 2019. Call for information: 314-706-6333 or email me: caroljessen@yahoo.com

I love these scenes where the artist stops just before over-defining the landscape. It's much more expressive, conveys feeling.this one is realy nice
