Sippewissett Marsh through a different lens
April 27, 2011
Sippewissett Marsh was depicted in pastel in my previous post: two 9×12 paintings, one on white paper and one on black paper. I decided to follow up these pastel paintings by trying the same scene in oil palette knife. The colors are more muted (on purpose) and the scene perhaps closer to what one would see from the local bike path. I used a pink and yellow underpainting for the sky; I like the final effect that was created.

Very beautiful! I used to do oil paintings from photographs. I was such a realist that it proved difficult on me. Ten hours on each painting. Now I dabble in paper arts andnsell my origami/kusudama flowers on Etsy. Much more relaxing. You should open an Etsy shop. Your work is beautiful. Karen
