Twilight Hour

Watercolor on paper
11 x 15 inches

For reasons unknown, my camera couldn't capture the exact hue of ultramarine blue which is the major color in this painting. I got problems with the values as well! I have tried very hard in photoshop to match this image with the original hues of the painting. Believe me, the actual painting looks much better!

  5. Interesting and well done evening scene. I understand your frustration with photo editting; the darker colors just do NOT come through as painted.

  6. Very well done. I hate when we can't get the colors right. I have a terrible time trying to catch turquoise in my photos. But my friend, we are artists and not photographers. Glad to see that you are painting again :))

    Congrats on your sale of the other day!!
