I am really happy with this one if that is okay to say. :) <br /><br />In answer to Marian's question about why a diptych for this: <br /><br />First, it's a format I enjoy working in. Not all images/scenes work for a diptych, so whenever I can, I do.<br /><br />Second, I was interested in depicting the wide, flat horizontal aspect of the marshlands. The double squares lend themselves nicely to that feeling of expansiveness. <br /><br />Third, I just really like squares. And double squares, and triple squares. For landscapes, they are a little less expected and I like that.Laurel Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17923315332740559546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5632343294650249018.post-20829329796639501772010-08-04T12:14:04.885-05:002010-08-04T12:14:04.885-05:00Each piece stands on it own but together is it who...Each piece stands on it own but together is it whole.<br /><br />What made you decide to paint it as a diptych??Marian Fortunatihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11107085447074524162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5632343294650249018.post-49601622142959834312010-08-04T11:46:05.852-05:002010-08-04T11:46:05.852-05:00I bet this looks amazing in person, Laurel.
