Hi Mariano my friend. Glad your back and probably wanting a rest from painting eh? Thanks for your lovely comment on this painting. I`m dying to see some of your vacational ones. I`ve missed our chats and critics of one anothers works. I hope you and Maeve had a good time, and that she is well. Thanks again Mariano. Vic.
Well done, I really like the composition and the cloud formation as well as your tonal values. Beautiful play of warm and cool colors. Happy to see you are getting some of the artist that I admire to follow your blog. I'm off to see my grandchildren arrive home from their first day of school. You have a great and happy day painting.
Hi Joan. Thanks very much for your comment. Glad you like this one. I visited another Area with lots of boats, but what you see is hundreds of static ones all over the beach, with lots of flotsam and big boxes and tackle that almost hides them. Not a very good productive day I`m afraid. But I went out this morning locally and did one study of a water fountain and a small landscape. I was very pleased with that effort. Thanks again Joan, and all the best. Your friend Vic.
I started painting around 1990 and loved it straight away.
I started with watercolour,and then after about 15 years I moved to Oils and acrylics. I still paint the odd watercolour to keep my hand in so to speak. I love impressionism. The only time I use detail is when I paint portraits. Otherwise it is my interpretation of the subject.
I am retired but still find it hard to find time to paint. I reckon I can manage to do a painting about three times a week.
Originally I was a Motor Mechanic. Then, for the eighteen years leading up to my retirement, I worked
for Barclays bank.
