sea boy

this is basically an acrylic painting but when I photographed it the flash on my dodgy old camera went off and bleached out the centre of the image so I had to fix the middle with a bit of cloning.

sea boy belongs to the following groups:

Impressionism Café, Masterpiece: Art, Nautical and Waves Available for sale as

Greeting Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints, Canvas Prints, Framed Prints and Posters

    Life on the ocean wave! Drifting in thought. Seasick.
    Your image can convey many meanings.
    I like the texture of the waves. Well done.

    he is resting, in the last painting the sea was very rough and he had to work hard not to capsize.

    I adore this. It is simply gorgeous. It is my favorite of all favorites. Sincerely.
    It’s the best best best. What did you digitally image? It’ just looks like paint.

  • genevievem

    it mainly is paint but I photographed it with a really bad old non digital camera ages ago, got heaps of flash in the centre then sold the painting. I was looking through my old photos and since I no longer have the original could not re photograph it with my good camera. So I had to fill in the centre way over exposed bit from flash with my extremely old version of photoshop and the clone tool. Not easy as I have so little RAM on my computer everything keeps freezing. Worth it though! Now I have my painting back in its almost original state. THankyou for your lovely comment.

    Reminds me of one of my favourite paintings by Pinkham Ryder, called ‘Constance’.

    Something about this painting really touches me – traveling alone in a small boat, on rough waters. A bit like life, really.

    Very nice work.

    Another lovely work Gen. Re the photographing, why not go take a new one in daylight, somewhere light but in the shade and manually turn the flash off. Seriously, this work needs to have the best photo possible representing it because it’s a lovely piece of art. (Hope you take all that the right way) : )

    Magic lighting and a feeling that can only be found in a splendid photograph

    I wish I had something else to tell, but my English vocabulary isn’t wide enough, the tones are simply fantastic and the composition could not have been better.
