oystermen

                                  6x8

I need a lot more practice doing boat reflections: mine are usually too stiff, like here.
After the first wash I realized I had some orange in reflection where it couldnt logically be. So I tried to more clearly define the reflection of the boat. Kinda fixed it, but it looks overworked to me.
To make prettier reflections I think I need to 1) paint wetter and 2) try to get the values right first time!

Very nice and I don’t see anything wrong with the reflections. Love the blue and orange palette!

Likewise the blue and orange. And the overall composition is super and completely makes up for any "supposed" errors. Love the sticks and the old men's attitude and posture.
