Here is the first stage, painted with raw umber. Now that I have let it sit for a day I see that there needs to be some minor adjustments to the drawing of the shadow in the water and the value of the boy on the far left's arm is wrong.
I could use some input as to the placement of the horizon. Does placing the horizon above the kids close them in? It will of course be very soft and grayed to recede. I thought a high horizon would focus the kids more "in" the scene creating more depth. Does that make sense to any of you?
I opted for painting the whole landscape instead of cropping because I do not have much detail on the boy's face looking at the camera.
Thanks,
Patty
