Paint Nite (afternoon) 7: lavender fields w windmill + 2 unrelated tidbits

I've been eyeing this one for a little while, and decided to do it this afternoon. Of course, that was before I knew we were going to have a cat crisis, but thankfully I wasn't needed between 2-4p so it turned out ok.

This was the model from the website:

That is kind of weird that the teacher didn't modify the way they ran the event, considering it was just you? I wouldn't have ever guessed at how much work a painting like that is! I think you did a really good job of maintaining the colour variations - I would have ended up with just a blob of blended colour, I think!

I don't know - maybe she just went on autopilot, talking about, "I'll just give you all a chance to catch up" and such.

And thanks! It's surprising how difficult some of these paintings actually are, isn't it?
