Although There Is A Video...

...documenting the entire process in the works, here are a few progress shots of my newest painting.


Aside from the delicacy of painting the oyster beds, the greatest challenge in this painting was making the transition from marsh grass in shadow to the full light of the setting sun.


It didn't work well in the first layer, and so I slowed down and focused on getting it right in the second.


With a glaze of Indian Yellow to bring out the highlights and give it a setting sun kick, I think it came out great!


It is titled ul 102 (standing at the threshold) and measures 9 x 33" in its frame.
