Creating a Soft Effect in a Landscape Painting - OutdoorPainter


Inspired from our morning walk! The meadows are so beautiful right now!! The early morning humidity really makes the distant trees a dazzling blue. I keep taking pictures of it (my husband says that I must have 5000 photos of this scene!) but they never capture what I see. So I tried to paint it!! I thought about some of the things that I said most often in my workshop...great advice to myself! I should post them beside my easel!!
