View from the island: painting (now finished)

4 Replies

This painting (now finished) is inspired by my visit last summer to a beautiful, small island near Korcula that gave amazing views of mainland Croatia.  The painting includes a series of glazes.

Towards the mainland II: painting

Leave a reply

‘Towards the mainland II’ evolved after a day in the studio working on a painting inspired by a visit  to Korcula in Croatia last summer.  I’ve applied glazes, translucent paint layers created by mixing small amounts of oil paint with artists painting medium and linseed oil.  Your feedback is welcome.

Towards the mainland: oil painting

Leave a reply

I’m now a student at Morley College taking the Advanced Painting Practice course in 2015-16.  “Towards the mainland” is one of my first paintings on the course and is inspired by the view from medieval Korcula Town across the Mediterranean Sea towards Croatia.
