Happy New Year Brian! This tug is just great. How do you get all those colors in there and they all fit? You don't see the colors, just the reflections or whatever part you are trying to depict. I am so stuck on my boat painting, I'm going to really study these two you have done for some tips. Thanks Brian. sk
Thanks Sandra, Happy New Year to you too! I don't really worry too much about colour except I'm conscious of warm/cool differences and I find any colours will work if the values are maintained. Brian
Wow wow wow!!!! Another masterpiece Brian! It's easy too see there is no limit to the diversity of the subjects you can paint successfully. The beauty you create is just so creatively satisfying and motivating for me. Good going and thank you Brian!!!.
This one done today, oil/canvas 16x20" Comments welcome! Brian

ReplyDeleteHappy 2008 Brian! Your boats are both wonderful and I especially like the light, color and curves of this one.
