The Shoreline at Night
watercolor  20x26" matted and framed


This watercolor is somewhat unusual
for me. I usually work wet on wet, but
here I utilized as many as a dozen
glazes to get  dimensionality I wanted
for the night sky. An illustration of
simplicity as lights of stars and distant
buildings reflect into the calm suface of
the wate, but the simplicity wasn't easy
to accomplish. I probably spent a
couple of months, off and on, working
on the painting to get the effects I
wanted.
