2nd IN A SERIES BY TOM BROWN



“SERIES” paintings offer unique opportunities as Claude Monet demonstrated in his water lily paintings, haystacks, cathedrals and other themes.

At first it’s a natural to paint the obvious reality we see. Upon further exploration our creative mind is opened to other equally interesting possibilities.

Compositional adjustments can emphasize different aspects of a scene. Color usage can be explored. The focal point can change or be viewed from a different vantage point.

This is the second in a series of four paintings done on location at “Keyhole Rock” along the Southern California coast. Tune in tomorrow for another.

Thanks for looking.
