I like all of these and do love your color choices - the seagulls and tree are wonderful. I admire you doing plein air painting - something I just can’t make myself do. Need to get back to my little art room once I recuperate from the long driving trip for a family funeral and taking my mother to various doctors and tests at the hospital…it goes on and on when you pass 80 and have COPD (which she’s had for a long time).
Wow: thank you Lisa. The ultramarine/ burnt sienna combo reminds me of Sargent too.
Thanks, Rhonda. It's kind of weird that I keep trying plein air--it is a challenge for me. I am very rarely pleased with the results. Why do I do it? I may not be sure! I remember doing the same for my mom and dad, both gone now. The rounds must be hard on you both. Best wishes.
I see Sargent often in your work, in colour choice and brushwork.
ReplyDeleteOh wow! Those gulls!!! Speechless!
