I continue to be somewhat fascinated as I do these "painting makeovers". What I have noticed with the few that I have been re-making recently is that the originals seem under-developed to me now. It is like I stopped before they were really done. And this one was only a year old. Have I grown that much in a year? Or did I go through a lazy phase? It's a curious thing.

I created this painting using one of my little 6x6's called "Forest On Sulphide Lake" as a study. Actually, I didn't look at it much as I painted "Striped Sky", instead I used the same resource photo to work from. I love the sky and I love the reflection. 

Every now and then I check out my stats on my Daily Paintworks Gallery and as it turns out "Forest On Sulphide Lake" has had on average more than double the views of any other painting posted on that site by other artists on that same day! Crazy! Hopefully that means a sale could be looming!
