New Painting - New Comparison

Florida Wetlands - 6 x 6
This is a painting of the Florida wetlands as the title states. I really enjoy the long vistas and the wildlife that packs these areas - not that you might notice from the "long view" such as this painting represents. These areas are the very nurseries for a great number of species that toward the top of the natural hierarchy are represented by fish, birds - yes insects, all manner of plants, reptiles, and alligators.

I thought that I would compare a digital picture with minor adjustments with a digital scan.
Digital Photo

Scan

Even though I took some care - there is a substantial difference between the two. And I am ignoring the differences in the monitor that you may be using.
So, you can get an idea of a painting on the web, mush the same as looking in a book - even a high quality one, but it is best to see the actual painting.

Luckily, there is a location that has agreed to display some of my paintings - it is:

"From The Heart"
1428 Highland Ave.
Melbourne, Florida, 32935
Opening Fall of 2008, if you are in the area, please drop by and take a look.
