Working on a project that energized me today, inspired by Frazer Point in Winter Harbor, Maine. This piece is loosely based on a photo I took at a family picnic at sunset I had when I was home for a visit a couple of weeks ago. The air was crisp and fresh, and the dark silhouettes of the spruce and fir trees were in stark contrast to the soft pink and blue sky that held violet, moody clouds.
I tried something new with this piece, adding a colored layer of wax pastel to bring texture and saturation to the pinks and oranges of the sky, as the colors were beautiful that night. Next step: sealing this puppy!
