Think I bit off more than I could chew on this one. First time painting in a few days and I chose a 2 foot by 3 foot panel. And... a picture that needed lots of editing. There were lots of challenges but in the end I think I like it.
It has been so cold here in Alabama and other places that I chose to paint a picture from a warmer time. I took this photo the week I was in Hilton Head with Karin Jurick. Loved the light hitting these two prime timers.
Carol,
ReplyDeleteI remember the prime timers and you did an awesome job. Would love to see this in person! Wow, 2 feet by 3 feet- I bet looks fabulous.
I painted a beach scene today also. Wishful thinking?! Stay warm!
Boy, is this a ray of sunshine on a cold and wet winter day. I'm impressed with the larger size. Great painting, Carol!
ReplyDeleteLes couleurs de votre océan sont d'une belle tonalité. J'aime la lumière qui inonde votre toile.
ReplyDeleteLorsque je suis allée voir mon amie dans le Maine l'été dernier, nous nous étions rendues plusieurs fois sur la plage. J'avais pu remarqué ce genre de scène, c'est-à-dire des couples assis sur des sièges face à l'océan.
En France, sur les plages, je n'ai jamais observé ceci.
J'aime beaucoup...
Bisous
Wow Carol, I love this...you were ambitious to do it so large too...bravo!
ReplyDeleteReally nice Carol and so soothing after the busy holiday. That's where I am going to be next week when it warms back up!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful color harmonies!
ReplyDeleteI love the lighting here, I can feel the warmth of the sunshine.
ReplyDeleteI love this painting and your style. Love the way you capture the waves. The colors are so beautiful. I wish we could beam ourselves back there for a bit.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful painting, the waves's heigh scares me!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Love the way you handled all the fabric, the sketchy shadow strokes and how really vibrant they are, carrying all the variety of color in the ocean to your figures. Really like the minimal-ness of the figures, their "barely-there" legs and the colors in their cast shadow. Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteCarol...just wonderful. I would love to see this in person!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Carol! This is beautiful, I love the quality of light that you have captured. It must be really impressive in person at such a large size!
ReplyDeleteBest, Cathy
Love this Carol! Did you use a black toned canvas?
ReplyDeleteI love looking at your art very nice! This image really grabs my attention! I love it!
