You’re style in art is just beautiful 😍

[@leighsalv5410]

Your style is just amazing!

[@J904-v6j]

Hi Lena, bravo. I love your paintings. This one was beautiful. I noticed that the skirt of the lady on the right was “bugging” you somehow. You painted a dozen or so iterations and they all seemed perfect to me. The one you came to peace with was great. What an amazing talent you have.

[@TheTrapichin]

Hola lena...! ! ! ..eres maravillosa! ! !

[@DennisTysonPleinAir]

Hi Lena! Do you seal the paper with something?

[@LenaRivo]

Dennis Tyson Plein Air hi, Dennis! No, I don’t. It is Saunders Waterford, it is already sized in gelatin.

Beautiful I'm off to Spain in the summer what type of sketch book do you use?

[@LenaRivo]

Michael Talbot Lucky you! This is Saunders Waterford NOT fat pad ;)

[@lommenvanhagen3340]

I was just wondering if you could include your photo reference in the video. I would love to see how you interpret the actual reference. Its fine if you don’t want to do that.

[@LenaRivo]

Lommen van Hagen unfortunately I cant. I never work just from a photo. I take my colors either from memory or from a sketch done “en plein air” under similar conditions. I use photos mostly as references for the shapes, sometimes a few photos combining different objects in the composition. I may add a mountain or a distant line of the sea or a lake, etc. Photos lie confusing actual values and colors therefore I never rely purely on them..

[@MyBorisovich]

muito bonita :)))))))

[@MyBorisovich]

но можно немного побрюзжать... по поводу теней... Хотя, все красиво. :))

[@paulcarlachapman628]

Were you keeping the gouache at full strength, Lena? ~ Carla ~

[@LenaRivo]

Paul & Carla Chapman no, Carla. It may seem very bright but I rarely use pure colors in any medium. Many of the colors in this painting may be considered “grey” as they were mixed with a bit of complementaries or close complimentaries.

[@paulcarlachapman628]

I think I didn't express it well. Was the paint diluted with water any or much? I love the painting!

[@LenaRivo]

Paul & Carla Chapman thank you, Carla! Yes, I add some water to gouache but never too much. It shouldn’t look or feel like watercolor. Gouache has to stay creamy. I would say I add water to it on a slightly but not completely wet brush.

[@paulcarlachapman628]

Lena Rivo. Thank you. That's helpful. ~ Carla ~
