Acrylics

Three more paintings completed.

Pukerua Bay Sunrise is another pretty cliché subject, but was an attempt to capture the colours of early morning and get more practice at graduated colour washes. I mixed up the colours for each corner, then a mid range between each corner at top and bottom. I painted the background over the whole canvas, blending the colours as I went.

More Acrylics

I've done three more acrylic paintings since my last piece shown here. The first is based on photos I took at Raglan when I was up there flying my model gliders earlier this year.

The second is a minimalist abstract. The canvas is painted black, with a red line near the top. The "black" paint is actually mixed from blue, red and yellow, and took four coats to achieve a good coverage.

The third started off with using up leftover paint, just creating broad strokes across the canvas, blending as I went. Once the background was finished it seemed to need a subject, so I included the petrel in silhouette. A bit of a cliché subject, but I quite like it.

See images of these pictures after the break. I've also added an "Acrylic" page to the website.

The last couple of weeks have been really busy, with 23 pictures to frame, mostly for my participation in the upcoming "By Land or By Sea" exhibition at Artrium Gallery.

The exhibition opening is on Thursday 6 June from 5:30 to 8:30 pm - please call in if you are in the area. There will be wine and snacks, and some great pictures to look at (and buy if you're so inclined).
