28' X 22" Dec 2013 |
I've had a lot more time to paint since I finished my semester at Utah State and am on Christmas break. It's been nice to have time to read a lot of art books and just paint without too many deadlines or external pressures. The bottom image is the most current. Others suggested I try a horizon line as the waves were very busy. I was inspired by Gauguin for the style and skin tones of the girl and am very pleased with the unique skin tones I was able to accomplish. I've been painting from my references I took while in Hawaii. This girl in particular was in the canoe show at the Polynesian Cultural Center.
