I was back to the Mary Todd Beam book "Celebrate Your Creative Self" and did this project from the chapter on composition. This particular project is using a high horizon line in a horizontal composition. In the first example from today the horizon line should be higher. I think the lower painting more successfully used a high horizon line. I did both paintings on illustration board with acrylic paint.

Gorgeous colors and a painted desert feel, Barb.
Barb, I love both of these, I am sure you know why! I do understand why you said the top one's horizon is too low, but having said that I have to say that one is my fav!
Thanks, AutumnLeaves - I guess it does look like a painted desert.
Susan - I think the top is my favorite also - it was the second one ... maybe practice from the first helped even the horizone line is too low! :(
