      I'm finally working through the courses on SVS and giving "Color and Light" a go. I thought I would choose some artists I love and paint them using similar color schemes or in the setting of one of their environments. Any critiques are appreciated, also is there a specific place for homework from the courses to be posted and discussed? (sorry if this is in the wrong place)

        These are lovely! Great practice to learn from the artist you like!
        I like the middle far right piece. That warm evening glow is hard to do!

          These are awesome! I like them all, but especially the bottom left - very cool shadows.

                I like the darker choices (right side and center) that avoid the happy Smurf mushrooms with a blue sky

                    Thanks for the feedback. If you are interested to know, the color palettes were loosely taken from Craig Davison, Mead Schaeffer, (photo), Anders Zorn, (photo), Frederick Church, Ghilbli and William Bouguereau.
