Breezy Morning



14x16" Oil on Stretched Linen

Before attempting my previous painting, "Morning Sunlight", I Googled morning sunlight through a window, and found just the kind of effect I was looking for in Peter Johan Kraft's "Morning Sunlight".  I borrowed his open window for "Breezy Morning"

Today, I decided to take another look before beginning "Breezy Morning".  It was a kick to Google "Morning Sunlight" and find my own painting among the images!

Morning Sunlight



12x16" Oil on Stretched Linen

The curtain on the right is a skirt with a pleated hemline.  With a lot of manipulation of my lighting, I was able to simulate sunlight through a "window", using aluminum foil to control the direction of the light.   This was a joy to paint!
