Hi everyone! Didn't do the large seven stepper as the photo did not fit the format of the canvas. Hoping you will enjoy this one instead.
This is great Ralph, love how the windows and bulding details are just hinted at. The water is awesome too as the darks anchor the piece. Lots of vitality here, great job!

ReplyDeleteThanks Dave! Makes a great underpainting at the very least. I will try to bring it up another level or two and post the finished painting on my blog.
ReplyDeleteNice Ralph. I really like the suggested figures. Love those complimentaries together.
ReplyDeleteOne thought... some bigger brush strokes in the sky might be a nice contrast to the smaller strokes in the water and buildings.
Thanks for your comment Elliot.
