Path Leading Past that Bench in the Evening - Acrylic on Canvas
What up guys. Finally, here we come - a brand new painting! I haven't completed a whole painting in a looong while - so this is a quite a big deal in terms of getting back in the artistic groove.
This scene was taken from one of my occasional 'wandering' sessions. Those are basically evenings where I just - you guessed it - wander around my home town, looking for good scenes to capture. This particular one was taken from a park that's only a few minutes from where I live. I remember it was one of those clear, sunny evenings where leaves were lit with golden sunlight and shadow were nicely blue and long. Those kind of evenings are rare in the UK, so I made sure to make the most of it that day. I really liked this spot where a path lead past this bench - I thought it would make for a good composition.
I painted this on a canvas that's a bit larger than I'm used to. One of the challenges I faced was getting the forms and shapes right. Some places I managed to do well, but other places - you see this kind of 'morphy' feel to it. But, I do think it is cool in a way.
Anyway, I hope you like my new painting to get back in the game.
