English Country Side

Photo Details

Poster: PaperPunchScissors

Andrew Pitt is the name of the English watercolorist I follow. A gentle soul I believe and one who enjoys plein air painting no matter the weather.

He is very responsive to questions and provides feedback when asked. On this particular painting he wrote me and said, Susie, you started to high on the horizon; a mistake many of my beginning students make. He was correct. I took note and won't forget next time (she smiles).

Sincerely
Susie ~

Well, high on the horizon or not, it's a wonderful little painting. Love it. :-)

I would make that same mistake (and many more) since I don't see it. Fabulous painting, Susie. Love the subject matter, the moss on the roof, and your pretty trees. Hugz

This is a beautiful country scene and lovely painting, I didn't notice any mistake, but the Artist has an artsy eye!! i'm always thinking, art doesn't need to be perfect when it's made with the heart and soul

Lovely painting and yes typical of some older English villages that are still unspoilt by over development
