My second in the 8"x8" series. I'll pass along a bit of advice that has made its way into my brain over the years...a shadow on anything is a darker color of the surface it is
cast upon...like the shadows created by these shutters on the yellow building...sometimes the tendency is to generalize and make every shadow a blue or purple or gray.. so paint what is there, not what you think is there.
It's a nice entry, I like the shadows and especially the warmth of the colors ... congratulations and have a nice week!
