Intense Color

Birthday Boats #26
Sold.
This is a quaint scene from Marina Del Rey, although the colors remind me of Portofino, Italy. I like the contract between the boat and the the buildings in the back. I made the colors intense on purpose, thought it had more impact aht way.

    I can't believe your day the other day! :( I hope you are all recovered, at least feeling better?
    And then the watercolor...so fun to see you try this! Don't you find that shaking it up like that creates insight into your usual work.
    It's good to be back and see what's happening over here!
