'Catamaran Park'

NFS

This is a quick brushwork assignment to evoke perspective. I emphasis the 'quick' ;-) element. I used a very old photograph of just the boat masts since they made an interesting pattern just like tree trunks. It was also fun to have thick creamy paint to move around the canvas.

'Cool Feet'

NFS

This is a brushwork study for my VAA course derived from a photograph taken by my husband on the day I paddled around the Diana memorial. It was a wonderful experience in the heat of the day to walkover the amazing computer cut granite. There were so few people there that I wasn't prevented from paddling through the granite ripples, ebbs and flows. The study focuses on the contrasts between water and flesh textures :-)
