The title isn't very imaginative. Perhaps It could be named "In Monet's Garden" since he was the master of the water lilies. Would he appreciate my rendering I wonder.
This is another fun play, experimenting with different brushes and brush work. The colors are a very different take on the photo I used which made it hard to get the values right. It eventually worked out and I'm happy with it.

Getting back to painting again after a long time off. I'm experimenting with new techniques which is great fun. This is pretty loose for me, playing with impressionism. I've been gone from painting for so long I'm relearning, a good time to branch out.
I took this photo at a lake near us. I go to the lake and sit on the beach drawing sometimes and taking photos. These youth were way off in the distance and I worried the photo wouldn't turn out. The photo even though a bit fuzzy was still useable. Can't you just imagine these two youths swapping fish stories?
