In the winter time, I often will work from plein air oil paintings I have done to create colourful work in mixed media. This is one such painting. I was trying to capture the incredible reflected light that happens underneath the amazing natural arches in Arches National Park. Beginning with a random sprinkling of collage elements, allows unexpected things to appear and become part of the painting, something that I always enjoy, as it really allows me to be creative.
Enjoy!

Nice picture, you did really capture the feeling of that lovely reflected light.
ReplyDeleteThis looks so familiar, I think I've been at this exact arch. Love the bright, playful aspect of this painting!

This is lovely. The first impression I had was the beautiful light under the arch, and the deep blue shadows.
ReplyDeleteWonderful treatment! I love that part of the world.
ReplyDeleteSharon, you are an amazing artist. I love the details in your paintings and those colors blend you powerfully. I got inspired by looking at this painting and tried to paint it like you but I couldn't get the same morning hue as you did.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the compliment. The secret is to glaze with transparent colours.
