Verticals
Shoreline Magic, 24x12, acrylic
Some subects just call for a certain format. This one I felt needed to be a vertical. I enjoy the long narrow shape, whether horizontal or vertical, it seems to make for an interesting composition. In this one I wanted to put the highlight on the bubbling surf at the shore. At first I thought that I would make the background island more indistinct but I couldn't seem to help myself and added more detail. Overall I am pleased. It seemed to capture the feel that I was after.

ReplyDeleteI am glad you came to visit at my blog as it got me back to yours. I think I got here last time via Liz Wiltzen's blog. I love your work, and normally I don't care for acrylics! You have a way with them. Now I am signed up to follow, so I can come back regularly.
ReplyDeleteLove the format and the way you handled the distant land. Happy Thanksgiving.
