And here is another copy of Aivazovsky. Seascapes just seem so suited to oil pastels.

Beautifully restful painting. The affect of distance is really good and the composition well thought out. Well done!

Beautiful! I love your blues.

This has an almost watercolor look to it that is very appealing. I like your square format, too.

Like Christel, I am also curious about the size.

Thank you all for your lovely comments!

Christel, Terri, this is meant to be a 10×8, painted on a larger paper; I just cropped the photo roughly to the 10×8 size it’s supposed to be. This is a gift to my friend, so I am painting to frame/mat size. Also oil pastels are tricky to preserve, so I always paint to frame sizes now. I wish I can work bigger lol.
