That forest... It what is left from it.
The riding mowers and not being so nice to yourself... I could ask: How come or Why not, but I guess it's a common thing.

I wonder why the colours in some of your oil paintings are so pale. Do you dilute the paint more, use less paint, or add a wash?

Sometimes I take a paint thinner rag and wipe off the paint so just a hint of that color remains. Thanks for checking them out.
And yes, unfortunately, I’m less nice to me in real life. I gotta change that way of thinking:)

Interesting you do that instead of a wash.
I hope you will be nice to yourself since you should be your own best friend and you are worth being nice to.

I wish you a super week!
