For a class today, I modeled this painting and it was fun to deviate and apply a more abstract approach. This is a representation of a sunset over a river near my home. Sunsets like this during the winter are quite spectacular. My goal was to teach how to use striking colors to bring out contrast for a more dramatic effect with broader and bolder strokes. Adding a touch of mist softened the bold contrast and created a quiet mood during those fleeting sunset moments.
