I finished my plein air class yesterday, and as part of our final day critique, I learned some important principles I would like to focus on to improve my plein air paintings. The primary challenges for me are:1)utilizing warm and cool colors and 2)to not get stuck in using the same colors repeatedly. With this in mind, I decided to rework this little painting that I did a couple of weeks ago. My intention was to cool down the shadows, warm up the lights, ratchet up the color a bit, and recede the background and enhance the foreground to create more depth .
