And this is the other one. I just need to make some changes to the little islands. They are in silver at the moment need to be the same as the big blacks in the background.I have put an angled one up so you can see the iridescence again. I love iridescence. It is so much fun putting the finishing touches on.
Below was the blank canvas last week with a photo stuck to it. It still has a long way to go. It has had a number of coats trying to get the clouds looking like clouds, not quite got it yet.
The one on the right is the original picture taken by my friend Vicki I can't quite get the sizes right cos can only fit two small ones together. (I find Blog.spot quite frustrating. I need some lessons! Anyone got any suggestions? Some of your blogs are wonderfully full of goodies. I can't even get the Paint Party Friday button up!)
Yes, I know, sunsets and sunrises. I am obsessed. At least I have moved on from RED and only red! I am painting towards an exhibition I will have in The Red Shed our little co-op gallery in June. At almost 62 I count as an emerging artist!! Looking forward to your work.
I love them all, especially the sunsets and sunrises. Love the reds. Great work. Happy PPF!

ReplyDeleteLovely sunsets! Love the purples and oranges. The only advice I can give about Blogger is to use Wordpress instead, LOL.
ReplyDeleteSomething about sunsets and sunrises is just magical. No wonder you are drawn to painting them. These are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sunsets! Just lovely! :-)
ReplyDeleteLove your paintings, Rosie. The horizon is a spiritual place. I just became 62 and can relate to your "emergence." Blessings on your work and your exhibition!
ReplyDeleteThese are incredible- I love the effect of all that texture underneath and the shimmer of the iridescence was a brilliant touch!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous work- I can understand why you love doing sunsets so much- you are REALLY good at them!
Happy PPF!

Rosie, these are awesome! I LOVE them all! The colors are so vibrant and you really capture the beauty of sunsets and sunrises. And I love iridescents, also. They are hard to photograph but they are so pretty on a painting! Beautiful work!
ReplyDeleteI am very glad you are obsessed with sunsets and sunrises because these are beautiful! I love your bold use of vibrant color :)

p.s. If you would like a blog button, I just changed the button in the sidebar of the PPF blog. To get it:
Click on "Design" at the top of your blog, then click "Add a Gadget" and select "HTML/Java Script". Copy the code that is underneath the button in the PPF sidebar and paste it into your "HTML/Java Script" window, then click save.
Hope that helps :)
I love sunsets and sunrises too. Love your colours.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! These turned out wonderfully!!

ReplyDeleteI too love sunrises and sunsets and these are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThey are a challenge to paint though - you did a great job!
Maybe we should have had a category for sunsets in the poll - but I guess it's covered in landscapes...
