    Now it looks much more 'natural' with the perspective.

    Nice improvement on the brass candlesticks material and refectivity/shadows! The bottom horizontal section of frame molding shows grain pattern offsets/joints on the left end and right end---to my eyes. The mitered corners are left far apart intentionally?

    I prefer the previous canvas appearance and colorations to this new textured one...the reason why (just my opinion though---please don't shoot me!)is mainly the texturing which seems a bit too heavy, and the lines on the mountains to the right especially are too prominent/distracting/not needed....the sun's colors also became too muddy and flattened through the texturing. But those things are just preferences of my own.

    Nice work!

    Thanks Maya.



    Nah I like the impressionistic type style of the canvas.



    The gamma is not Windows either so try adjusting the levels a bit and see then if it looks the same.



    The frame edges are actually in line I checked a dozen times,its the shadowing on the raised part of the edges I think.

    Stu--

    I think it's taking on a quality that is both photorealistic and painterly.


    My Best,

    Thanks Gare


    I just wanted to see if I could push it that little bit further before putting it in the "no doubt will be re worked again at a later date folder".....
