water painting #01

Click the pic for a bigger version.

Here's my first offering of "art" - going to put up images of stuff I've done for this latest project called Water.

This one was based on a photo of the sea at Bognor Regis - the ar$e of England if I can be so bold :P

It's acrylic paint on A3 size canvas.

I used a wet on wet technique, coating the canvas in white paint then dragging through the other colours. Means that you have less control over which colours you make and in the end the result is random and one off - perfect! :P

It looks very nice. The clouds look very real to me.

i'm getting really good at clouds and foamy bits cos basically you just get white, slap it about the place and miraculously it turns into clouds! :P
