Storm Surge...
The Surge(8x10, oils, SOLD!)
The bad Nor'easter inspired more "weather" and sea art. I love how this came out. I find some of my best seascapes are imagined ones. Homer tended to work this way, as did Aivazovsky. Aivazovsky was just awe-inspiring.A friend sent me this link and you can see more of his work : http://www.abcgallery.com/A/aivazovsky/aivazovsky.html . I kind of like dark, moody, threatening oceans. They lend a sense of mystery and lore to them. This painting came together in about an hour or less. It almost painted itself....lots of medium, lots of palette knife for the rocks. I am using this as a guide to do something bigger someday. Next up? Still more rough weather, this time...LOOK UP and run!!!
