oooh nice one! on rocks I use some hard lines at some of the edges and some dark smallest possible brush solid black and dark gray accents in the shadow areas with sharp outline edges they tend to look more realistic.. love the clouds!

thanks to both of you, a few hard lines here a few softened lines there...my rocks mught be fine....might hmph i can spell, just cant type!

This is a beautiful painting, love it, looks so peaceful.

This is beautiful. The rocks look "fluffy" only because they are a bit blurry. A little more contrast in the color values with darker underneath and brighter highlights on the outer edges will make them appear more like rocks. (With more shadows and highlights in the middle of them) I wouldn't do them too sharply, or outline the edges, -just make the edges more defined-(Dunno, I come from a different schooling than davin, I was taught not to outline things, unless you want it to look like a coloring book) outlining them harshly will bring them forward too much and they should be a tad fuzzier because they are farther away. I love the wildflowers, although they do look a bit like they are floating, a few stems and light and dark grasses larger towards the front would fix that (I'm sure you were gonna do that anyway.. I see you aren't finished.) I really love this one... It's good composition, too, btw. I like your style!

I never went to any art school..... I didnt mean to outline them.. to me ..sharper means . "Mo Defnisshin" lol and I love this too!

I meant where you said sharp outline edges. Thought that's what you meant. But overall I know what you mean. lol sharper, sharper :D

well ya don't have to be stoned to see those rocks! they look good..love this

this is really pretty, but the rocks look almost 3-D ish to me.. meh its still a good pic =D
