Sunset Study


"View from Bed Room Window"
Acyrilc
42 x 30cm

This is the view I got from my bedroon window one night when the sun was setting. That purple thing you can see in the distance is Arran by the way. This is just one of the many studies I've been doing through-out the year to prepare for my final kick-tosca's-ass painting. Nae pressure, eh?!

A Work in Progress...



Ok. This is it so far. I painted it with oil paint and pallet knifes. I could just leave it like this, but I want to see what you guys think first. I was originaly intending to put a tiny wee silouette of a ship on the horizon. The idea was that it would demonstrate how helpless and small we are next to nature as a whole. Now that I've done all this , i'm not so sure about the boat. What do you think? Also, what do you think of the painting being entirely blue? And how do you find the waves in the foreground.
