I was really scared to attempt painting this scene, especially in oil, but I am rather pleased with it. It brings back wonderful memories of my trips to that beautiful city!
I damaged my camera a few meters from that scene and the damaged lens currently blurs the top left of my photos.
I am falling in love with oils. So far, the only thing I don't like about them is that I have to wait a while before I can varnish them.
Good for you Christiane. You are adding yet another medium to your tool box. Oils are so beautiful but yes, the drying time. Sigh! I am far to impatient. Acrylics don't even dry fast enough. :) Well done I love the perspective and how you are lead into the scene and all they down the street. Beautiful.
ReplyDeletethank you, Ross. I took so many photos of that street. I felt I just had to paint it. I keep forgetting that oils don't dry fast like acrylic and putting my hand over wet paint:-)We are so fortunate to have this creative outlet!
