Enb Plein Air: Reeds on the Canal (Oil, 9 x 12)

I know it looks like the painting I did the other day. As a matter of fact, when I was painting last time the scene, I told myself that I would come back to paint the reeds as the center of my focus in contrast of the dark background. In fact, it is a practice of value relationships again. However, this time I mainly used palette knifes instead of brushes.
