It's a good idea to repaint the alrady painted subject! It gives me courage when I am so disappointed aboit what i did on the canvas. With more knowledge I can paint it all over again!! Thanks Malcolm!

I like the warmth in the 2nd painting over the coolness in the 1st version. Once I've declared a painting done, I tend to go on and paint it again on a new canvas if it really bugs me. But before I get to this point, I've usually fiddled with the 'original' version several times. I have some paintings that I messed with, generally repainting the same canvas, over a period of several years!

I especially enjoyed seeing you use the bigger brushes…I would probably get out the 4 to start and go down from there…I’ll try harder! Thank you ! I also wondered about putting oil on the old painting first or at least using a bit of oil in the paint to satisfy the “fat over lean” principle? Cheers!
@MalcolmDewey

Thanks, yes you can lightly oil the dry surface. In this case the old painting was dry so it was like painting on a well primed panel. Completed in one go so no danger of irregular drying.

@MalcolmDewey

It is a good idea as long as you wipe it down to avoid it being too slippery. In this case I did not use any oil - the surface was quite rough with previous impastos so I had no doubts about getting the paint on.

I actually liked the first one but I can see how the variety of colour especially of the same value has given the second one more interest. I have tried to overpaint but I don't use thick enough paint and also choose transparent colours without realising and they don't cover too well.

Yes transparent color, like "permanent" colors instead of cadmium leads to frustration in this case.

I agree with a few of others Malcolm both look good. However the newer version, looks very good. The colours look even more vibrant after the paint over. Many thanks for sharing. I was wondering, would I be correct in saying that the suggested time of day with the later painting be late morning?

The first had a lot of good things, but the color notes were not clean and that removed the vibrancy. Some prefer the more subdued palette but I like painting to stand out more.
