The painting is an incredible size. The repeating birds and white shapes in the foreground make this painting an interesting study in contrasts. The undulating foreground contrast with the strong horizon sky and water.
Would it help to lighten the water around crow pattern 7 & 8 to make them more visible such as the earlier crow flight pattern?
Beautiful! I love the contrast of the black crow on the lighter background. ❤️
Thank you, Max
What a thrill to watch the crows take flight as they have more detailed highlights…or is it the great contrast in foreground by illuminating the beach ice? Looking forward to experiencing it in person with you!
The crows do have highlights where the sun reflected off them (Rembrandt Silver mixed with Old Holland Black & either Ultramarine Blue or Alizarin Red.).
