Ever notice how first thing in the morning the water is like glass, only tiny ripples, and it reflects the sky so perfectly? My favorite time of the day - oops, except sunset! Anyway there are a few dories around here that sit so gloriously on the water at that time of day, it makes me almost compelled to get in, row off to my nice big sailboat (which, ahem, I do not actually have) and spend the day gliding through life. This one is an 8x10, on a panel, and will pop into a ready-made frame.
So! I couldn't resist taking another stab at the TURQUOISE Dory! I basically punched up some colors, quieted down other colors, and added a small bit of detail to the lobster trap, and weeds.
Both beautiful paintings! Sounds like your week away, was just what you needed! Welcome home!
ReplyDeleteBoth pieces are amazing, Kelley! Love all the red in the second piece and whatever you did, it does look even better than before. Glad you went with your heart!
ReplyDeleteGreat feeling of calm and wonderful colors and shapes in the red boat scene. Turquoise happens to be my favorite color so I am crazy about that boat too. Looks great against the reds!
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love the little red Dory so much! The reflections are fabulously abstract. Header says 8 x 19...Love you too!!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous- I saw this in person...glowing and absolutely beautiful. I treasure.
