Spring Breaks Through

Art: Spring Breaks Through by Artist Carol Thompson

"Long, dark winter days are past.  The 'spring breaks through' the greyness and lights up the sea in aqua and coral."

Artist comment:  "I enjoy the contrast of opposite colors, here coral and aqua.  Even the sky is tinted with aqua.  And purple makes a good third tone.  The composition is a 'C"' with diagonals meeting at the horizon.  I began with this oil painting on canvas by sketching the composition, then painting the sky and water, varying the sky tones darker and greener.  All the while thinking of Spring a familiar movie theme echoed in my mind -- hence the title -- with defernce to 'Dr. Zhivago'."
