This painting is another gel medium smooszh painting. Yes, I know, it doesn't sound to technical but it is discriptive none the less. First the gel medium went on and some sap green paint. The large trowel and knives moved the color into what was a vertical pattern. I stood back, walked around the painting and saw that we had sails! It was either sails or another forest. I chose to bring out the sails. Ultra Marine blue and white with some olive green here and there, formed the waters and sky. You can see the underlying green of the first layer. Next came the sails themselves. A few licks of the knife here and there and we have, "Safe Harbor", 16"x16"x1 1/2" gallery wrap, acrylic knife work.
This beautifully framed oil painting has the sunset sky reflecting on the water. Up close you can see the foaming incoming tide water as a hungry sand piper scurries along looking for a late sand crab supper. The mood of this painting is a soothing one. Pinks and blues and lavenders fill this canvas. "The Pink Shore", 10"x20" framed, oil on canvas.
