This is a great post. The photos provide great examples of how to take a what nature provides and turn it into a beautiful piece of art. I think one of the more difficult things to learn for beginners is how to visualize a scene as a painting and how to createthat translation. I would love to see more photos/paintings that demonstrate this. Hi Lori.

I am so glad my ideas have helped you. That is why I am sharing my own tips in hopes of helping others. I have learned that Mother Nature gives us so much beauty, it is impossible to try and copy directly. Editing is a learned skill and it gets easier with practice. Just think about design! Let me know how it goes! Lori :-) Hi Lisa, what a nice comment coming from an art teacher like yourself! I am so glad my ideas have helped you.

I am an art teacher and have recently started oil painting. I am taking lessons from a remarkable artist. Funny, we talked today about editing photos. I really like how you show examples of how you do that. I am finding I am relying too much on what I see in the photo and am not wanting to edit! But after seeing how you do that, I feel like I need to both take more photos and see what I already have inwaiting! Hi Lori- I really like your work.

This post with examples was especially important to me since I'm currently struggling with a photo/painting. Last week on another painting the process just sang. This week...nothing. I'll eat lunch then trot out back to my studio to try again - this time with some McNee knowledge in my noggin! Since I’ve so enjoyed your blogging and videos, I thought it about time I told you so.
