Painting - Oil On Canvas
Description
Original hand-painted oil painting, "Sky Sailing," is an expressionistic abstract style painting using an impasto technique and monochromatic color scheme of blue and white. It was SOLD to a Florida collector for a gift to another Florida resident and hangs in their foyer.
BACKGROUND on how and why this painting was created:
After 40 years of NOT painting in oils, in 2018, I took a Beginning Oil painting class at a community recreation center where I had moved (in 2015). This was the 2nd and 3rd class lesson. First we had to use a limited palette of Cobalt Blue and White. To me a natural for clouds... THEN, we had to superimpose a shape over top of our blue and white. At a loss as to what to do, I thought, well, I love painting sails, so why not sails. After painting the larger sail, I decided to add another smaller one to the right. From there adding wisps of clouds that could just as well be ripples in the water seemed to be the appropriate thing to do...
P.S. SOLD this almost immediately for a housewarming gift for my daughter's other next door neighbor--who wanted it for her new home in Florida--with whom we both also went to NC STATE University together.
