The perspective of this portrait of a client's children by their pool is very popular and on trend currently. A couple of my friends who are not artists, came over and saw the red primed canvas, they were very worried about how this painting was going to turn out. I explained to them that I like to paint my canvas a contrasting color to the overall color theme that I will be using. When you see the finished painting up close, tiny spots of red can be seen between the ripples of water. The blue and red vibrate against each other because the colors are opposite temperatures and close to opposite each other on the color wheel. and the finished painting! It is 48" by 48". Quite big and fun!
