8" x 14" Serenity on Sunapee
I tried painting in miniature today, in hopes of scanning the artwork instead of taking a photo. In my planning, I didn't measure my scanner and the painting was a bit too wide. As a result, I had to take two scans and piece them together. Here is a painting of Lake Sunapee in Burkhaven. It is where our boat is docked, a very peaceful, serene setting. I found painting on small scale is quite difficult without the painting becoming a muddled mess of brush strokes. After my first attempt, I had to go back and meticulously lay in smooth brush strokes to keep the image calm and "simple".
NOTE - I sometimes sign my smaller paintings with CLJ711 on the front, my whole signature and copyright on the back.
