Her values are perfectly controlled, which is even more amazing when considering she faced the subtle light of the British-Irish Isles. Her painting "Willow by the Water's Edge" is a absolute masterpiece.<br />Jim, this is precisely the sort of lighting I asked about regarding your Alfred Munnings post on 5/20/2020. The lack of chiaroscuro makes it so much more difficult to discern and organize values. Local color and depth of field seem to become much more important.
