Description 9X12 inches Acrylic on canvas

This is my interpretation of the beautiful photograph β€œGathering Storm” by [link] I took a few liberties, especially by increasing the intensity of the colors by mixing all my colors using only the primary colors.


Comments are always appreciated.

How big is this? I really love what you've done- the contrast and bold color work well together to create at once a very realistic and abstract image. I'd like to see it in person

Your reference photograph is impressive, but I think you have greatly enriched it.

A very impressive result.

Martywolf92 [2008-12-12 03:18:35 +0000 UTC]

wow! Thats how I always paint; by using primary colours. I do have these 2 different acrylic paints of blue and red that make good purples because the normal red and blue doesn't come out very well to make purple.

Beautiful mix of colours!

Ravenhaven In reply to Martywolf92 [2008-12-14 06:13:09 +0000 UTC]

That is a good way of achieving rich, pure hues.
I usually use two sets of primary colors. One warm and one cool. And I mixed all my colors from these. Sometimes, I may add Yellow Ochre, and Burnt Sienna to my palette.


Thanks my friend!

Martywolf92 In reply to Ravenhaven [2008-12-16 07:55:24 +0000 UTC]

Well the primary colours are all i got so thats what i use but i never knew they give out more vibrant colours. I just add black or white to make it dusky or bright. I mix a mixed colour into another to give another shade of the colour.

Anytime.
