Tweaking the Landscape samples

Finishing each one took over an hour. In the summer piece, the plaid annoyed me the whole time. This piece would not stand alone as a landscape but the addition of a focal point, tree or animal would conceal it enough. The colours were good but the plaid a little too aggressive.



Autumn is so satisfying on many levels. There is so much colour it's difficult to go wrong. Variegated threads work very well here adding the colour burst in the forests, even in the evergreens.



Winter is winter, stark and empty. With a minimal finish, its crying out for a orchard tree or some other object. The sky is half finished in two different threads. The left side in mono filament and the right a closely matched pale blue. Either one fits.
