More Water > Ocean Sunset

Size: 11" x 17"

Price: $285

The challenge for this piece was to use a palette from a favorite picture, and I chose Van Gogh's Starry Skies as the source of my color palette, and it actually came together very quickly -- except for the final touch, the birds in the sky. These I found in the course of cleaning up odds and ends of junk, and would have ended up in the wastebasket if I hadn't had a use for them here! I used a bit of Angelina fiber to blend the sunset colors into the dark sky and for highlights in the water.
