Re: Sea Cruise

I do wish I could get the same intensity of colour that you do. Your paintings are always
marked by such vibrancy.

Re: Sea Cruise

Thx John, the intensity is because some of the colors are straight from the tube with just a bit of white added. Love your work!!!

Re: Sea Cruise

We get lots of cruise ships like that around here in the summer ;at night they remind me of enormous floating birthday cakes, liable to topple over at any moment. You've certainly caught that feeling! Love your deep intense blues.

Re: Sea Cruise

Wow, really cool Brion. The way you did this makes the ship glisten on the water. Great technique!

Re: Sea Cruise

This is great Brian! I have such admiration for those who paint so well with the knife. This must be even more exciting in person at 16 x 20 & being a knife painting.
