Painting - Oil On Daler Board
Description
I painted this many years ago when I was still in my teens. Maybe that's why I never appreciated it. Now when I look at it, I absolutely love it. I have only ever finished about five oil paintings in my life (I started many more). I'm so glad that this is one of the ones I persevered with. When I finally uploaded this painting to the Internet, I was quite surprised at how much detail I had managed to put in. The garden is done in a very impressionist style and it's difficult to make out what the plants are, although I do like the way it came out. Obviously the foreground plants are tulips, which leads me to believe that this cottage is actually in Holland. Where I used more detail, is in the cottage itself. I particularly like the window on the far right, where I have even painted something standing inside.
