I find the painting pleasant but lacking some detail. Notice that Laurence's painting has a large area of clouds in the upper right. I find this to be way too much negative space so I intend to paint this area differently.
The palette is fairly simple. Prussian blue, french ultramarine blue, cadmium red, sap green, naples yellow, burnt umber, white will just about do it. I could use just the primary colors and get the same outcome.
I have posted a photographic image of the same location. I will use this photograph alone with the painting to make my interpretation.
I sure can't paint in the same style or quality as old Sydney but I know I can produce an interesting painting. Maybe someone in Alaska will want it.
