A couple of demo paintings from my expressive landscape workshop at Brampton Arts Club last night. One of the warmup challenges I do is a painting in 15 brush marks or less. The first two paintings are of Luskentyre on the Isle of Harris in 6 or 7 marks. It's a good one to get you thinking about making every brush mark count! πŸ™‚
