Bright Reflections

The morning started off foggy and fairly warm, with temperature at 41F (5C) but by the afternoon the sun came out and the temperature rose once again to 62F (16.7C). All in all, a very pleasant day.

I decided that I would like to finish this painting that I had started a number of years ago and I just needed to put some ripples into the water in the foreground.























I started by putting the water rippling against the base of the rocks in the foreground using a mix of Titanium white, ultramarine blue and a touch of burnt sienna to grey it slightly.

Lastly, I added a few reflections of the sky colour into the water using white and cobalt blue in a few areas in the foreground.

This original 10" x 14" acrylic painting when framed will be available for $235.00.
