Sleigh Ride
Oil on canvas, 10x8
GOT Art Gallery Holiday Trunk Show |
After a full day of visiting with family in from Australia, tonight finds me painting in a vintage theme. I have never painted a horse-drawn sleigh before, so this is my first attempt, possibly a Christmas card candidate! I am really playing with the grays here, pushing a little prussian blue in with a little violet. I will need to take another photo, as the blues do not appear as strong as they are in the night lighting. I have discovered that I do not like using the palette knife on canvas - the wood panels accept the knife marks so much better, without all of the skipping off the tops of the canvas tooth. Painting number 322 in 322 days.
This is a beautiful painting that would make a great Christmas card.
