My tribute to Andrew Wyeth. This is not a copy of any of his work. I tried to captured his style and feel.

It was a lot more work than just adding a filter to a my photo. I removed a house, trees, a mountain, added a sky and basically recomposed the whole image to get his "uncluttered" look. Photos used are my own. See SBS.

Mr. Wyeth work is copyrighted but you can see it here (sorry it is so long)

A "version" of Sir Edwin Lanseer`s Midsummer Nights Dream, due to sources available and to keep it as a manip rather than painting I was only able to make a close Version. I hope you like :-)
