I need to go out again at this time of day and paint on site to get the colours correct.<BR/><BR/>Our memories of the exact value or shape always tricks us I think. We have the rose coloured glasses version - or at least I do! :)<BR/><BR/>Thanks Lindsay. This was a very quick painting - literally 30 minutes. I'd like to go back in real time to paint this again and see how close I was to values and colours.<BR/><BR/>Thank you Robyn. As I said, I don't know how accurate my memory is, but if I've conveyed some of the feel of the place, that's good.<BR/><BR/>I keep looking out the window all evening, turning off all the lights and assessing the colour of the snow and trees in the dark to see if I was close on them in the painting.
