On the Open Water
Oil on panel, 14x11

I have been working on this tall ship painting, and now I think it is finished. I will leave it on the easel, and check it again in the natural light. It is past dark tonight, and with the darker colors, it is hard to get a good image where hue is concerned. There is more ultramarine and prussian in the dark water and skies than shows here. So, once again, I will have to wait until midday to get a good image. If only I could finish all paintings when the light is still good - ah, but that is not my life! Leaving it on the easel also allows me to view it in all kinds of light, making sure all is as I want it to be. This painting is a moody one - and number 705 in 705 days :)
Well done!
ReplyDeleteI could never paint this kind of soft looking, elegant picture. I wonder if there's a storm coming...I like art which makes me ask questions ..
