Price: Contact Artist for Price
Media: Oil Sketch on Centurion Oil Primed Linen Panel
Size: 5x7 in
I had arrived on
the Oregon Coast at the beginning of November for an Exhibition of Small Oils
in Bandon, and spent the whole month painting seascapes, and returned
to the Coast for two weeks over the Christmas period, camping in the National
Forest, and painting.This painting of
is representative of these seascapes. The beach here at Bandon is riddled with
islands and sea-stack, and so provides many varied and interesting views to
paint.I've been taking full advantage of
this and will continue to do so over time.
I first laid down a transparent imprimatura of Burnt Sienna to provide a medium tone to work on when I began the painting. The pigments used were: Yellow Ochre, Venetian Red, Cobalt Blue & Titanium White. As you see I limited my palette to three colours and white, two being earth colours and thus a more harmonious colour scheme. I had been painting most of November with this small palette and was happy with the varety of greens I was still able to get with just Cobalt Blue and Yellow Ochre.
