Sunset Loon

The painting below was an experiment with a darker foreground to silhouette elements like the trees against a brighter sky. I wanted a mist to shroud the boarder between shoreline and the water of this little pond. I used vibrant colors for the sunset and kept the ground and water much darker. I really enjoyed painting this one and it turned out pretty close to what I envisioned. It’s a 12x16 wrapped canvas.
