Dinghies
Posted: June 28, 2013 Filed under: Uncategorized 13 CommentsThey seem to be well-coordinated, these little dinghies in the Rockport Harbour. One of every colour, just waiting to be painted. I thought this would be an easy task because the water was fairly calm but every time I looked up from my sketchbook they would all have moved — ever so slowly, ever so silently — so that by the time I got around to putting in the colour I had to do all the shadows from memory.
Nevertheless, you caught them wonderfully.
Thanks Lee!
Shari, tu travailles toujours principalement avec peu de couleurs? Ces barques sont-elles un bel exemple de la gamme de couleurs qu’on peut obtenir avec quelques primaires?
Non Charles, j’ai pris toute la palette pour ceci. Le rouge vif et l’orange pur sont deux couleurs qui sont difficiles à mélanger avec un palette limité. Ca fait plutot des demi-tons.
Je me demande: ce sont des ombres ou des reflets?
Il y a les deux. Les ombres sont en dessous des sieges et les contours des bateaux.
Regardless..lovely!
I very much like the collection of boats and how they are positioned, not to mention the colors you used. What I very much found exciting was the way you left the edge work around the boats to make them pop. Vous avez bien fait, je me suis inspiré ….
Merci beaucoup Claudette! Thanks for letting me know. This was a little grouping that I have wanted to paint for a long time.
Awesome!
Thanks so much for visiting Shelley!
Super, j’adore ! Très belles couleurs tout en harmonie et la composition est intéressante.
Nice! I like some boats are color and some are not and also their color.
