"Lake Louise"

Lake Louise / 36x36 / acrylic on canvas

I had rushed to complete this painting before my daughter & I headed into the mountains to spend a couple of days taking photographs of her sewing projects (visit her blog here).  Now that I've lived with it awhile, I realized that it felt a little flat since I hadn't had the time to darken the darks and lighten the highlights.  Each time I go back into a piece that looks interesting, it can be a bit nerve wracking, but I'm always glad I did it...and I'm glad now, too.  There is a beautiful sense of light that was missing before.  It makes me happy.
