Here is another new painting, of the Eiffel Tower. It is a 16x20 acrylic on canvas. I have been painting mostly in acrylics this year, and starting to really like that medium. I am getting used to them more and more, as in the beginning they drove me a little crazy because they dry so fast. They are definitely "cleaner" and less toxic medium than oils, and I am glad that I am finally enjoying using them.
I purposely painted very "loud", bright clouds on this piece, as I wanted the sky to not be calm or empty! I made the tower itself look 2-dimensional, almost like stained glass, and the background clouds look more 3-D. Prints of the piece are available right here.
