Happy moment !


Hi !
I do try and paint different elements but water is the most difficult one for me….
I’ve been trying to get it close, am happy to share my trials with y’all.

                                   

                                           

                                             
Here is where I am after many hours of observing and lots of practice …..
What do you think, am I close or not?
Have a happy weekend wherever you are.
Anita.

Thank you all for your comments,it's encouraging.Please do know that I appreciate this.

Looks good, Anita.
I couldn't get a close up to see more clearly......but do you have greens and purples in there, too? It's very realistic, like a water falling down a wall and creating some churned water beneath.

Diane said...

Anita said...

Fantastic, Anita.
The rough water is perfect.

The wall of water looks like an iceberg to me. Perfect.

Close? no Perfect.

Anita said...

Thanks Anu,Maureen.

@Anu - It's oil.I do only acrylic and oil.Got to learn water colour,hopefully soon...

Wendy said...

I can almost hear the waves splashing. Water, especially rough waters like this, are tough and you have done an amazing job.

Anita said...

Thanks Connie.It was really tough.Hopefully I'll be able to do it with some ease next time..
