This painting is the result of a demonstration that I presented to my oil painting class. It is a 16" x 20" painted on canvas, and I call it, "Desert Island Light".

About Me
- Bill
- Glendale, Arizona, United States
- I am an artist working in oils and watercolors. I have been painting for over 25 years. I have a BS degree in industrial education, and over 40 years as a color separator in the lithographic trade, where I worked on copy cameras, scanners, and, more recently, in Photoshop, and now I am retired from that vocation. I also taught color theory and application at Arizona State University. I enjoy painting, and all my subjects are for sale, unless marked "SOLD." I recently resigned from teaching an oil painting class at a local recreation center, which I did for 9 years, but I still offer private lessons on my glazing technique. I am a conservative, American, Capitalist sort of an artist, and today we have a blithering idiot as President of this United States of America, in the form of Sleepy Joe Biden! He is truly the worstt president I've experienced in my lifetime, and I lived through most of WWII ! Best wishes to our past president, Donald Trump, with sincere hopes that he runs for President once more, so that we may experience the excellence, and common sense that we realized under his administration!! williamfmartin@cox.net Bill Martin ___________________________

when you observe nature and you want to make strong illusion of depth on canvas you need to make first plan stronger than the background. The air is blurring and whitening the objects that are far away. in this picture i would put a thin layer of white paint on the trees that are behind the house. This should make the illusion of depth more convincing.
ReplyDeleteI read your posting on wet Canvas and just came along to check out the rest of your paintings. I love them all. I'm just starting out painting landscapes and its a bit tricky.
