One is much more technical and analytic while the other is more emotional.<BR/><BR/>Living in picturesque North Carolina has given me the opportunity to construct scenes in my head even as I drive back and forth from work at different times of day and year. Amaxing how similar that is to the process you describe.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again.<BR/><BR/>Atul PandeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5422938401784126072.post-80806392099599749122008-08-22T18:58:00.000-04:002008-08-22T18:58:00.000-04:00I like the way you paint your trees and that golde...I like the way you paint your trees and that golden light in the foreground.

Perhaps caused by the tendencies to completely dissect a memorable scene in our minds, very slowly, and then rebuild it, still in our minds, as we'd paint it. <BR/><BR/>At least, that's what I always do with memorable scenes I drive by or see somewhere other than in my painting studio. ;o) A favourite passtime during those many moments throughout the day at work when I'd love to be painting instead.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for visiting and commenting at my blog. I've got yours bookmarked and will visit often.<BR/><BR/>DebDeb Légerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04313082773866286411noreply@blogger.com
