It must sound (or look) like I just cut and paste the same comment every time I post something these days, but I still feel the need to make the excuse...
I have been working so many hours lately that this small painting sat on my desk for weeks before I did a few more things to it and decided to post it. I'm not quite finished with it. I just got tired of feeling like it should be done. Initially it was going to be a quick impressionistic study, and it is for the most part, but I ended up having to do more with it than I intended.
Things are not all work, however. I was able to take a long weekend trip to the coast with my wife last week and we had a fantastic time. And of course I have squeezed in some golf...
I have found that if I don't start working on a painting in the morning, the distractions of the day seem to prevent me from doing anything at all.

Wonderful work! Love how you handle the changing light in your cityscapes.
ReplyDeleteThanks Suzanne. I want to work on the street lights here. The colors don't quite work yet. I like picking scenes that have that element. This scene doesn't have a lot of dramatic light, but I thought I'd give it a try.
