"This studio painting is based on a beautiful scene near Cambria, California. The drama of the eucalyptus drew me in as we approached so I placed the horizon line low to emphasize their majesty. Please let me know if you like seeing the photos of the painting-in-progress." --- SFG
NOTE TO ARTISTS: Where you place your horizon line helps to communicate the idea you are conveying. A low horizon line will emphasize height and the sky. A high one will make the foreground or the human point -of-view - think "Christina's World by Wyeth) more important.
