Weekly Challenge:
This week we were asked to paint the photograph upside down concentrating on the shapes we see and not the composition. By flipping the image, you're more likely to render what you see, and not what you know. You are guided by shapes and blocks of color. When you are nearly finished, you flip the painting right side up and finish the details. I did have to straighten quite a few lines, but the shapes were basically there.
Sunlit City Stroll was painted using professional artist grade oil paint on a small canvas panel. Painting can be framed or placed on a small display easel. Painting was finished with a light coat of varnish.
