      A vicarious effort = one who suffers on behalf of others! You deserve a medal for this, three days of a chill east wind, drizzle and temperatures barely over freezing! Climates are dynamic but what I really notice is the increase of wind - speeds and frequency. It makes open air painting very difficult. Easels can tumble, panels fly and pressure on the eyes can make them water. There is a fine sense of depth and you capture the fingers of high ground going into the levels.

    Great tips! Copying a master is something i haven’t done in ages. Good idea. When i am blocked, I sometimes take a scruffy old painting that has been deemed a failure, and since i have nothing to lose, i will boldly finish it, using any old media i feel like, adding freely to the “old failure”. Lol. Surprisingly the lack of pressure to create a masterpiece or fix where i went wrong, often works in my favour, heading me off in a surprising new direction.

    One thing I never use is double sided tape. Why, since it is so convenient? Because I purchase countless nice frames from thrift stores, and put in a good amount of work to re-use the frame, opening the back paper, removing the over-abundance of power staples or framing pins, removing the old matted print or art, cleaning the glass, often cutting new mats, etc. And any time the previous framer had employed double sided tape, this becomes the bane of my existence! It never fails to be extremely annoying to work with and around. It adds permanent stickiness and cannot be removed. And it most certainly NEVER helps me, just causes more work and annoyance! I always wish other framers used it far less frequently.

      I haven't tried that but I often find I paint nocturnal paintings too dark in value overall so by working on a light panel it encourages me to paint lighter in value.
