The previous painting is not finished but I didn’t have the mental energy to tackle it today. This new painting is not entirely invented, but there has been a lot of artistic license applied to construct the image. The two hills were in the centre of the painting, now moved to the right and three smaller hills added in its place. The right side of the horizon has been moved to the left. There are some odd distortions in the sky from my editing which I am going to exaggerate. The single tree in the foreground has been reshaped and then copy and pasted and now there are three. The scene is still unmistakable from the actual one, nature has just been enhanced. The big cloud on the right is a result of a swipe on my dirty tv screen.
An imagined landscape, Northumberland. Day 1
