#71 'Sunrise, Frensham Little Pond' 7x9.5"


I was up painting early at 5.15am for sunrise, it was still and peaceful at Frensham Little Pond. Hardly any movement on the water (until the dogs jump in and the ducks swim by :-)
I am pleased with the reflections, I painted it all in downward soft strokes. The sky I mixed with medium to make it thin and wispy looking. Getting up so early was worth it!

  1. Yes, it was worth it! An oil painting that has the delicacy of a water colour.
    No false note anywhere.....
