This painting was done for Lee Brown's A Day Not Wasted December challenge, from a photo he took while visiting New York in autumn. I particularly liked the lady strolling through the park - possibly on her way to or from work. I imagine her a fellow artist with her portfolio case under her arm. What I particularly liked about Lee's photo (besides the lovely fall colors, interesting lamps, and nice compostition) was the detail in the woman - she was a tad smaller in the photo, I gave her more prominence - her leather boots and bag, patterned skirt over jeans and the sweater that looked like it was chosen to match the season.8"x10" acrylic on canvas panel $125.
Lovely painting! The fall colors look so misty and soft--slightly impressionistic. And your figure adds great interest.
ReplyDeleteLove your colors in this, does give it a sort of crisp fall like day. And I think you're right to enlarge the woman, she is one of the main things that drew me to this photo challenge.
