My ArtVenture: Acrylic painting: "Sunset over Lost Kingdom"
Hello dear Steemians,
Hope you have a nice Saturday, we have lovely sunny, day, or course we try to enjoy the last warm day of autumn, normally in October it will be cooler and more clouds.
Last weekend was Highland game day, this week is more quiet, nothing exciting happening but High street was a bit fun, people just enjoying sun bath, café outside and I have bought two tube of paints yesterday, I decided to bay Yellow Ochre, that is really extraordinary color mixing with a bit of blue you will get a nice olive green, with red it makes beautiful golden-brown. I thought I will try to use it for nice mix colors, I do not have idea how and where but I will try to experiment.
So today’s topic is beautiful sunset at our area, the county where I live is called Kingdom of Fife that is why in teh past I did couple of painting that were called "lost Kingdom" somehow my paintings were a bid melancholic. Therefore when I saw recently a boat on low tide with a coast on other side then I just thought that I will do the painting of it, of course I changes the clouds and made a reflection of it in water, I love quiet calm water because then reflection is like a mirror.
Again I use my standard colors:
- Cadmium Red and Yellow,
- Cyan Blue and a bit of Ultramarin
- Burnt sienna and a bit of my new Yellow Ochre
- Of course Titanium White
Klasse, nein X-tra-Klasse!
Es freut mich dass dir mein Bild so gefällt !

Thank you for your nice comment and I am glad to hear that you like my painting :)
What beautiful painting, @stef1 !! The water is wonderfully done, love the serene reflective surface so much ! and how the horizon meets, between the water and the sky, is very beautiful, also <3
Very gorgeous painting. It evokes a lot of calmness when I look at it <3
Thank you very much @veryspider, that was my intention to show the beauty of reflection, I love sky with colorful clouds and the reflection in calm water is something really amazing . That was a hard job to make them look realistic, paying attention to colors and of course symmetry but at the end I was very satisfied too.
By the way, saw you are now Curie curator, you really deserved it, I am really happy for you. Great Job!
