Well….that’s it. Diptych finished! That only took twice as long as planned! Today I’ll post the left panel, tomorrow the right panel and Tuesday both together for the full effect. The scene is a view from some rocky bluffs in Caulfield looking west across the Strait of Georgia (now the Salish Sea) to Vancouver Island. The process was fun but a ton of work. I think my next painting will be SMALLER!!!
Looks great. It is always great to finish a piece. I really like the treatment of the water and the distant trees.
Thanks Deb,
Joseph Conrad once described finishing a novel as being akin to getting over an illness. That pretty much sums up my feelings about finishing a painting – a strange mixture of euphoria and relief.
