Sunrise over the Cane Field
Acrylic on Board, Post Card size 2009
This piece I did for an upcoming postcard exhibition at the Regional Gallery. The theme was called "line"...so I used this theme within my technique, using strokes/lines for most of detail.
I kept a colour scheme, using orange, purple, green and red ochre.
I tried to achieve depth and perspective, while using a limited palette.
Comments are welcome |

Thank you for all your positive comments...the exhibition opening is in a couple of weeks and makes me feel good about the response, and the upcoming auction...I hope it sells!
Jasmine you asked | Quote: | | very different from your usual style though? am i right? |
What do you think my usual style is??? (Curious to know how others would describe my art style...it might help me analyse it!) I feel it is me. I guess my style is still coming through. Bold, semi-representational/ semi-realistic is how I describe my work. When I can, I incorporate texture. But because this painting was so small I thought it wouldn't work (I wanted to add texture to the cane). |
