Sunsets

With over two months of wind and rain I felt it necessary to paint a few subjects that would hopefully raise my spirits. So I went back over my archive of visual material and found some quite interesting sunset photos taken in various locations and at various times.

It seemed a good opportunity to push on a slightly looser acrylic painting technique with which I have been experimenting. Painted on various smooth surfaced boards rather than canvas. The paintings are quite small, more or less A4 paper size. Four of the results are below.
