watercolor, 2016
available, 11"x15"
This is from a photo I took on the Dan River back in June and the second attempt at painting it. The first time I tried this one, I overworked the foreground shore multiple times. So, this time I left it white to vignette only the line marking where the water and sand meet. That didn't seem to work, either. It was far too bright. So, I added in the abstract color you see now. Maybe it's done now.
It is bright but I think it works well. lots of light to the scene, actually helps make it look peaceful :)
