OSWOA - Night Sky 3

I came across this small painting I started last year (see post on 29 January 2013) and it looks very similar to one I had started in a class at the Kawartha Artists' Gallery and Studio with Emil Varga last month (see post on 11 March 2014) so I will experiment with this one so see where I would like to place the foreground islands for the larger one.

Using a mix of French ultramarine blue, burnt sienna and alizarin crimson I painted in an island to the right side of the painting and using the same colour put the land reflections below it in the water.














With a lighter mixture of the same colour I painted in the distant shore line.

For the foreground water I added some ripples into the water with a mix of French ultramarine blue and burnt sienna.
