I've been enamored in recent days with the paintings of Isaac Levitan, a 19th century Russian landscape painter, and have done a couple more rough sketch copies of his works. The first is a 6 by 8 inch canvas panel. The second is an 8 by 10 inch stretched canvas.
Amp says they are nice, but they make her sad.

That said, for whatever reason, I am drawn to these kinds of admittedly dark and dreary landscapes.
Maybe tomorrow I will paint something happy. Or perhaps more of this.
