Thanks for pointing that out, Robert - straightened version now in place. I am thinking of getting a canvas made of this, and it would have been so disappointing to look at it and realise that the horizon was out. Any other adjustments I should make prior to sending to print?

Very true about the picture BUT the words "comfortable and pleasing" would be a HUGE, HUGE insult for the impressionists and an enormous misunderstanding of what they tried to do.


I don't agree. There's nothing in the Impressionist approach that precludes comfortable, pleasing work. They were all about capturing fleeting nuances of life and the immediacy of the everyday. It is true that in their own time, people did not FIND the work "comfortable and pleasing", for the most part, but that's because they were not familiar with it, its approaches. Modern viewers find most impressionist works to be very soothing and serene.
