And you're right, we shouldn't ask what Jeremy Sams would do, but you should ask, "How would Meredith finish this?" It's your voice that needs to be heard in the painting. This struggle forces us back to the basics and makes us think objectively...is my composition pleasing? are my values correct? are my proportions correct? and, does the painting answer the "why" of why I painted this scene? These are all foundational questions that always help me wrap it up.Jeremy Samshttp://www.jeremysams.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5322451671253623460.post-90566190358179999242016-01-21T09:28:32.203-05:002016-01-21T09:28:32.203-05:00Thanks, Julie!
