I think I still have work to do on this one. It's my first night scene for some time.

About Me
- Alan
- France
- Painting and writing -- I've never known which of the two I want to do more. So why not both? But I've come to realize that the writing tends to be lengthy, and may be too controversial, for a blog. So it won't be so much in evidence as my occasional absences from painting because of it. I'm not a painting-a-day person. My Muses are fickle maidens and often skip away for weeks. I think the subject of a painting should be intrinsically interesting -- and never far removed from the human.
It looks like someone standing in front of a night Seine scene ... which is interesting.
ReplyDeleteThe woman is perfect.
Thanks, Elaine. I like your shoes.

Ha!!! Elaine finally got a guy to comment on her shoes!!!
ReplyDeleteTo me, the sky doesn't have the calm of a night sky. Even light-studded urban skies seem calmer at night. The water absolutely does have it, and the woman is wonderful as an observer and a participant.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Barbara, for most welcome critique. Yes, I was bothered about the sky. Too busy. I don't know if changes will improve things. Wrote more fully to you on your blog e-mail address, but got an 'error' reading.
