A Day To Remember
12" x 16" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
NSF - Commission
This painting is completed! It was a commission, and I had a great time painting it. The rocks were all done with the palette knife (my favorite part of the painting). I started with a red-toned canvas, as the white surface was just too stark. The reference photograph was somewhat different than how the painting turned out. The sky and water were painted in with a bright brush, and although I did not want to get detailed with the fence and lighthouse, I had to be somewhat accurate on the proportions. I want the viewer to know that the waves are strong and powerful.....bashing up against the rocks. This is my post for the 25th day of the 30-30 Challenge. I am off to paint today at The Dutch Art Gallery....stop by if you are in the neighborhood. Kay
