Remember Noelle? While she had a vet appointment to remove some of her feminine assets I stopped by a friends studio and then Fisherman's Terminal where, between rain squalls, I was able to paint this little study. The task was to find color notes out of the substantially gray sky, water, background yet keep the feeling of a cold rainy overcast day. The rain and wind finally chased me out but I think this makes an OK statement.
Noelle came through fine but I suspect she's holding a grudge....
Awww... I feel for Noelle. But, she'll heal. And she found a great family!
ReplyDeleteVery nice painting. It captures the feeling of world around here well. Fortunately we are going to have 3 days of sunshine! YEA! Wonder what that tug boat would look like today?
"Color notes" in a painting. Thanks for that new thought. I think it gave me some new insight.

nice how you managed to convey a cool, damp scene, even with the "warm" colors
ReplyDeleteBeautiful painting Darrell, you've captured the atmosphere and the hint of color brings out the gray. I'd say this is a winner but that's just me. As for Noelle, don't think her grudge will last long, smiles.
