We were packing to leave when I saw the possibilities in the fading light and rising moon. The colors in the sky were so subtle I’m not even sure they come across in the images shown on a monitor. But they were a touch of pure magic, not to be missed. And I caught it in this final painting of the day!

PAINTING THE TOWN - URBAN SCENE

 Click here to Buy for $50 – 4x6 oil on cardboard

City scenes offer artists a wonderful variety of interesting shapes and colors. Architecture, cars and trucks, and people, as well as natural elements like trees and shrubs. But many artists feel overwhelmed by too much information in urban subjects. I think the answer to is to simplify, and include only enough detail to communicate the essence of the subject. I like to look for the “big shapes” of color, form and value. After all, those are the elements that usually catch my eye. Capture those aspects of the scene first, then decide how much detail is needed. That’s the approach I used here; hope you like it.
