And yes - I do want to try some more landscapes with oils - in the very near future! <br /><br />The snow has melted except in amongst the trees, but the temperature remains cold. I have not gone down to my main garden to check on it yet... I am afraid what I will find will truly discourage me after all the work I did planting it. But perhaps more survived than I think! <br />Have a great week, friend!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05743900480139515536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2981842043164199296.post-27967968201981146232009-06-07T19:33:28.940-06:002009-06-07T19:33:28.940-06:00This is your first?!

I am so familiar with watercolor that it is kind of "known", even if it is unpredictable and challenging, whereas there is a mystery about the oils... and I like adventure and mystery!!! Have a great weekend. :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05743900480139515536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2981842043164199296.post-52477193426724021272009-06-05T15:36:38.883-06:002009-06-05T15:36:38.883-06:00Your first landscape in oils!
