Lately, I've done a study of mapping my paintings into the three tone masses. Lights, half tones and shadows.
It has been an interesting study and as always I learned from the study. One of the reasons for this study was to present it on
http://ellenebreedlovedavisradio.com (Blog Talk Radio). I would be honored if you chose to listen each Wednesday at 10am as I talk about all things art. Whether you are a seasoned artist, just beginning or some one that likes to be creative, you will gain additional knowledge and inspiration as "The Landscape Artist Speaks.
As side from this, I want to keep myself informed and renew my knowledge as I seek to take my art to the next level.
These studies have also been posted in the Valle of Yellow Creek Art Studio Blog

There are 50+ blogs, art related, for your information
Information from these two sources is very valuable for all artists but especially if you are just beginning to study color, brush strokes, marketing your art and many other subjects.
Honor Your Creative Spirit
