Okay...after procrastinating and generally goofing off...I am back in front of the easel. The above image is of a large 30x40 canvas I have been working on seemingly forever...on and off for a couple years anyway...an intimate view just below the rim of the Grand Canyon. I will try to finish it so I can start another big beautiful painting...this time of one of my favorite places in the Southwest...Lake Powell. I am focusing on large work now...small paintings are good to practice a technique or try out an aspect of color theory...but the real thrill is in painting big.
Fantastic KM! The computer view certainly doesn't do this justice. What a beautiful bend of light coming around the corner.
ReplyDeleteam glad to hear another seeing that to do justice with these wide open spaces requires large canvases, that big ideas just cannot be conveyed well in small settings...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Everything - composition, color... it all just works!
