Poorhouse Lane

Mike Rooney, has a very effective way of laying in the darks and setting up a value painting based on the "Notan". Here is the painting I did using Mike's method. I think it's very effective and it really gives the painting a strong design. This is different than the cape school approach that I have been using for years. I feel that growth is inevitable when you try new things and open yourself up to new ways of seeing.
