Wharfside, 11x14
Remember that painting give-away? Well, I'm about to announce the winners as soon as it all gets tabulated. So many great comments. I'm on my way to Montana tomorrow and will let you know the contest results later in the week. You will be impressed with the method I used to make the picks. Stay tuned.
Those of you that have my book, 'Value Sketching With Markers', may recognize this from the front cover. I've always meant to get back to it with paint but summer is pretty much the only time with the lowest tides in the day time. So yesterday had to be the day.
Big shapes followed by doodads.... In the marker drawing I didn't include any background buildings but it was formatted somewhat differently. They both work, I think. I personally keep wondering who lives in the house even though I know it's actually a restaurant.
Keep in touch. I'll be back with the winners in a few days!

Another great painting.
ReplyDeleteI hope you're not being affected by the fires -- but they might make for some spectacular art. (I always wonder how the animals are faring through the fires.) Safe trip, cousin.
Have a wonderful time. I look forward to seeing your paint as you go pieces......Have fun!
